Default Re: wing weight

if it'a funfly plane I usually don't like to correct it. I try to keep the funfly planes light. if it's a little off i use aileron trim to work it out. If I have to add weight I rather add the weight closer to the fuse rather than further out because the further out the more likely to cause a tip stall.. at least on the slow flying funfly's.
By adding weight near the fuse is going to take allot more weight than if you do it at the tip.

An aircraft that is laterally balanced will have less chance of tip stalling than one that isn't.

They track better and perform aerobatics allot better, no falling off in a loop, etc.
