Nose weight

[Steven Maxwell]

 You know Steve it's not to hard to move the wing socket in the fuse to get
balance I've done it before just cut fuse sides with Dremel the thin dremel
brand cutters and move to new possition and glass cloth the inside of fuse
and won't add much weight, way less than anding nose weight, I'm assuming
that it's a plug in wing.
