New 3300 Weight
by structurespilot » Mon Oct 01, 2012 7:06 pm
I heard a rumour that the new 3300 have gained some weight. I e-mailed Jabiru, and they confirmed the new weight of 184 lbs.
This from wouldn't let me attach the PDF they sent me, so if anyone wants a copy, PM me your address and I'll e-mail it too you.

184 lbs + approximately 12 lbs for an engine mount (taildragger)= 196 lbs FWF without battery, or Propeller. What about the 200 lbs FWF limit? Does the TRI gear mount weigh more? Anyone know?

Or buy the Aerovoltz Li-Iron battery. Saves you about 12 lbs.

I was planning a LiFe battery...so to stay where I was hoping to be, I'll have to find six pound somewhere. Maybe I can fly naked. :lol:

I weighed the tri gear engine mount for my Onex assuming the Aerovee engine and it weighed just under 5 lbs. Quite the difference from a Jab mount.

That just doesn't seem right. It should be maybe a pound difference. One of you are not calibrated correctly.

One is weighing a Sonex mount, the other is a Onex mount.
