Default RE: Spinner weight goodness

somegeek,

I have always been leary of using any types of weights at the prop. Reason being; should the engine backfire and kick off the prop and weight, you'll be trying to land a tail heavy dead-sticked plane. Terrible combination!
I'd find a way to move battery forward, replace battery with larger capacity battery that weighs more, or as a last resort, add weight as far forward as possible, but not on the prop shaft.
