Well I am not sure how much it weighs yet. I tell you that it didn't look that huge to me till I stuck the RDU on it. Now it looks huge to me too. Probably the most engined Kolb in existence. I did lift it up today as is with the RDU attached so its not over 140 lb I think... maybe I could be stronger than I seem,,, I guess I ought to weigh it just so we know. Ok that's the project for tomorrow. Anyway finished installing the RDU today with the re machined drive coupling, the fit is perfect. The HP estimate is 110 Hp, so I may need to throttle back some while in flight, or my Kolb will turn into a delta wing. Next is to lift up this beast and fit it onto my mount. I will use the hanger door for that job, its electric powered so it can hoist the beast up. After all the agony I went through I am sorta happy I am done with the RDU phase.
