Default RE: When Should I balance a Kit?

Don't add lead weights whenever possible, add gussets and strengthening trusses and cross braces around fin/rudder/rudder (not the fuse at the tail). In this way, you convert the additional weight needed to good use while attempting to balance the plane. Convert all these lead weights into balsa gussets and you have plentiful of gussets to put to good use.
