Any of you guys with the a 912 on your avid heavy hauler Mark 4 willing to say what your empty weight is?

Just looking to get a ballpark weight. Also wondering if anyone with the above has full lotus 1260 floats on could give their empty weight?

THANKS

i currently have 12lb of lead in the tail of my fat avid to bring the CG back from almost the forward limit. When I move the battery back my empty weight will drop to 700 even.

i think my friend Jeromie has his MKIV about as light as you can make it. He has the battery all the way back in the tail and his CG is real decent. Flys well empty and can still load it up as much as possible and not go aft.
