Just out of interest @Steve Fox, how much heavier than a stock FT Cub is yours? I assume you're using White foamboard from hobbycraft?
Sorry, only just seen your post, my foamboard comes from a UK Ebay seller called papergourmet, i buy it in packs of 10 A1 sheets.
Forget FT specs, the cub flys much, Much, MUCH better weighing more!
FT specs are only good for absolute zero wind!
My cubs come in at around 890g with a 2700mah 3s and are 1.1kg with a 4200mah 3s and 1.15kg on a 4200 3s and a storch wing but lift on that wing is huge compared to the stock cub wing!
my specs are in the first post, but heres my full specs and links

Stand alone voltage osd i use, works well but under reads by 0.6v and so im showing 9.4v when im really 10v but like a fast or slow clock, you know what it really means and i may just have a bad one, others may well read bang on:

future builds with no FC will be using this OSD for on screen voltage:

it can be flashed with a standalone version of MWOSD and be used for a voltage display and you can configure it to display how and where you want, it can also act as a stand alone gps decoder (with a gps attached of course!) and display speed and distance without an fc with MWOSD firmware flashed!
