If by full case you are referring to the full case 1/2 VW that is what the XL and UL are designed around and for.  The cut case by the time engine mount and oil coollervare adde ony safes about a pound

Actually I'm glad you replied. I was watching youtube as I tend to over do and noticed on your test flight looked like you were flying 4 cylinder xl. Then another video looked like 1/2. I have a full Vw and not concerned about part 103 since I will get registered anyhow but was curious about the extra weight
