Default RE: Opinion on Need for Wingtip Weight

Good looking airplane!!

I believe in reducing the number of variables... Why let the model go out with a known problem, especially if it's easy to fix? While it may not cause a problem, seems to me that having the airplane balanced properly is a good thing.... If for some reason it doesnt track well in a loop, as tpstorey suggested... wouldn't it be nice to know it isn't a lateral balance problem??

My $.02
