Thanks, I'd be curious. Mine is close to 27 with the Sierra gear and lots of scale details and full cockpit. I only needed about 20oz in the nose for mine though and it is a bit nose heavy. Ramstein (aka Charles) and I both dolled up our ESM D9s
Strange that hat I had the same issue on my maiden with it needing lots of down elevator and an early T/ O. Makes me wonder if the horizontal stabilizer incidence is a bit down from the factory.
