3.10 WEIGHT AND BALANCE
The maximum take-off weight of the ELA-07 is 450/500 Kg. This
represents the empty weight including additional equipment, occupant
weight, fuel and luggage.
The pilot is responsible for ensuring the aircraft is not flying over weight.
Empty weight is the aircraft configuration with the standard equipment:
Oil and coolant in normal levels and 3 lt (0.8 gal) of unusable fuel. No
ballast is required in any allowed weight distribution, so no ballast is
included in the empty weight calculation.
A weight and balance report and equipment list showing the gyroplane
configuration, empty weight and centre of gravity documentation is
delivered with each gyroplane. Any changes in the configuration should
be performed by a qualified maintenance station and documented.
