Here's some bad video of my maiden<div>

</div><div>I too put my battery on top of the fuel tank and had to add weight to the nose to get it to balance at the manufacturer's spec. It wasn't much - 2oz I think and I can remove it at any time, but I have noticed that on subsequent flights it does land very fast. Would removing that weight and balancing it further back slow it down on approach?</div>
