Here's the weights I usually aim for for LPP:
Wing- .5g
Stab- .3g
Prop- .8g
Fuselage-1.5g (the rest)
The wing and stab are both rly strong and they take 1.2 in/oz.+ of torque without deflection. Prop is about typ. weight. (Usually they're about .75g).
The motorstick is very very fat and so is the tailboom. You can definetely build it lighter than the 1.5g target weight above but it looks rly beefy to have it! =)

Can anyone suggest target weights for LLP. I'm building a Dave
Linstrum "Penny from Heaven Pennyplane and modifying it to a LLP. I
know this is an old design but I have the full size plans and I'm
practicing my building skills. I have reduced the wing cord to 5" and
I'm going to use the "Thrush" specs for the motorstick and boom maybe
the prop to. I just don't know what things need to weight. Thanks. If
this is a dupe,"Sorry"
