Default ASK-21 wing weight

Indeed. Probably done in order to increase allowable max cockpit load, as
battery in wing falls under lifting parts, reducing actual weight of
non-lifting parts.

Thanks to all. 200-225 sounds right. I wasn't aware there was a

The battery box for standard 9AH led acid batteries is located in the
left wing root baggage compartment.
