Default RE: Tail Heavy Alpha

Even with the extra weight it will fly OK, it just won't glide/float quite as well. On the bright side, it will penetrate a wind better when dead sticking much like when they add ballast to a glider. Do what you can with moving weight, get a heavy prop nut and put any weight you do add as far forward as possible.(secure it well)
