Wouldn't be so bad if the base wasn't so massive.

I've just been made aware of this thread (I have commercial interest in the product)

it's about 18 pounds including everything, lots of that weight is in the actuator. yeah, about twice the weight of other wings.

Thanks for all of the opinions. (really!)
