The Starling 2 Max specs list a 500g weight and a 500g additional payload capacity. Can anyone clarify if the 500g net weight includes the battery, or is the battery part of the 500g payload capacity? Thanks!

@wen-max On the datasheet it says take-off weight of 566g https://docs.modalai.com/starling-2-max-datasheet/

Take off weight includes the battery
