Not to be a weight weenie but the BA manuf. specs for a FC UL1, Yampa, Q-Core, and pillow seem to put you closer to 5lbs than 3.5lbs... what am I missing? Also, I have a FC UL2 (but don't like/use it) and found their 'packaged weight' spec to be understated by 5oz by my kitchen scale (my sample is 2lb, 10oz). Just curious as I use a 3.5 lb rig, and that weight for a BA fit-out didn't seem right.
