Default RE: How much weight is too much?

I did add another big washer just on the side of the battery..in the
pic you can see the other wire tie... As I started flying the __ll out
of the Avistar I did end up with stick on weights at the end of the
fuse just under the rudder... I removed the covering and C.A'd
the stick on weights there then I covered with white sticky
covering, there still there.... Now I added the washer and tail
weights just to make the plane tail heavy to see how it would fly..
It did respond somewhat better in hovering,snap rolls and such
But it was a little more touchy on landings.. But I liked it.. And
better yet it's still in one piece:-)
