Why does the Elite 2 now weigh 10.5 lbs whereas the Elite weighed just 9 lbs?

I have never had the Elite / purchased the Elite 2.... so I cannot answer the question... all I know is that the Elite 2 is a remarkable tool to add to your "tool box" .... it is perfect for light hauling. It has been a lifesaver for me on many occasions and would recommend to anyone!

I don't know what the difference is in weight. I think the best people to answer this question would be the manufacturer.

The elite is built from heavy duty square tube steel frame, the other one just uses steel wire on top of the frame . If weight or ware is a concern go elite.

it is bit heavier as it's a professional series. Somewhere online I read that it was 2 lb and it's about right.

It's cause you didn't read the specs of the 9040 before you bought it. it is essentially an Elite 21 in the regular Pioneer clothing. To do 3 zones (independently) you need to step up to the Elite 23 or higher.

I just got the one I ordered, 7 grams according to my scale. I put this in a Syma S36 (almost the same as a S107) and it is too heavy. It will fly normally with just a touch of forward movement for about 5min. After that it loses altitude and power due to the extra weight. It flies another 5min (10 total) but will only get maybe 5in off the ground with max power.

I never noticed the weight as heavy or light. I use it for a good 10 minutes and my arms don't feel tired.

The base is much larger than my old Elite model. It may be that the more expensive models have smaller bases as this is quite clunky. But, it does work well and I am happy with it.

I noticed that also. The cheaper model only weighs 9 lbs., this one weighs 13 lbs. Must be more heavy duty.

Mine was ELITE. The box in this picture shows a different carry case than mine. I bought mine in 2011, still use it so I expect some changes/improvements in this model.

Honestly the V2 has somewhat nicer casted parts and also has a more popular style head to be replaced when you crash the heli. The standard for example comes with composite blade grips which break away easily where as the v2 is all aluminum and usually just bends although composite blade grips are harder to acquire.also the V2 canopy and more ridgid.

hi! I'm fairly certain the elite has extra gadget options (you can hook up a heart rate monitor to the elite) and tracks more via the gps. Like altitude, etc. Check there to find the differences.

Upon what information are you basing your comment that because the 1019 is 10 lbs. lighter than the 1018 that the "quality goes down"?????

I did not actually weigh mine but I know it is way lighter than the "Intex" brand I also own - probably half as heavyand way less bulky - about half as bulky.

Sorry I do not know. I could guess, but that is not going to help you. How about soft is soft and elite is purified more. And I said I wasn't going guess.

I never noticed the extra weight because I needed the extra time I could get from the battery. Now I am so used to the weight I would not go back to the old battery.
