Beats me guys!!............I don't have one...............Considering Tracy's RD1x drives
complete weigh 45 lbs and when you figure in the "Mistral" planetary hsg, bell hsg,
damper, prop governor drive, etc 65 lbs did not sound out of line............

I would agree with John. There is no way that thing weighs 65 lbs. 35 sounds more like it.

Group,
We have at least two on this group that purchased a complete "Mistral" 13B and perhaps
someone that purchased just the "Mistral" PSRU..........Does anyone know the weight of this
PSRU ??.................
Thanks,
