Nose weight

[Steve Wiggin]

I figured the weight I needed actually is about 3 oz. The additional moment
arm by putting weight in the spinner would only reduce this by 1/2 oz. I
have a small area in front of the nose former, about 3/8" and will try to
put the weight there. Not sure if I should try fitting the stick-on lead or
go with shot and epoxy. I'd like to be able to easily remove some when I
start flight testing. The plane is a CG Finesse designed for a 1.20 fs. I'm
putting in a TT 1.20 two stroke, thus the needed weight. Battery is at the
engine bulkhead, and servos and receiver not easily moved at this point. The
fuel tank is forward of CG. Thanks for the advice.
