Incorrect .xdp file weights

I've noticed in the xdp files for the Camel that the weights are listed
as 431 empty 680 max and fuel weight as 240.

Correct weights are 962 and 1482 max gross. (Numerous sources)

Additionally, the Fokker Dr1 is also incorrect. At 431 and 680 as well.

Correct is something like 895 empty 1289 gross.

Other planes like the SE5A seem correct.

Sorry, I was just looking through the files because the camel seemed way too maneuverable and was trying to find a fix. Don't know how big a problem this is, but it does seem to decrease the climb by a bit when changed.
 
Thanks Matt but if you look in CFS3 they often switch metric or imperial measurements in there freely. The weights there are in metric.

The weights for player FM are in the air files not in xdp. Camel has had many hours on it, and we believe it is a very good version of the camel.
 
Ah, so I'm guessing that theres another field in the files saying which measurement system there going to use or something like that. Confusing.
