So in the ultimate F16 which mast should I get..


The F16 rule states there is a 6kg min tip weight, now I haven't measured a F16 compliant mast alloy or carbon, but would think that the alloy mast would have a tip weight around 9kg (tornado used to be 10kg tip weight min and they were tapered so pretty small up there plus all the masts I had were carrying around 500g lead)

So the real question is: would you like to take 3kg off the tip of your alloy mast? I sure as hell would!
