I did not add any wieght to the nose. i did not use the rails either, added a piece of ply to the front and used blind nuts. you will love this plane, dont give up on it, i respectfully disagree with the fast build , it is a lot of work, but then i am a noob.

mine is 15 lbs. dry, i coverd it with super coverite and then went over the coverite with mono coat. it looks awsome and the feel of the covering is nice and smooth, I love this plane so much I bought another on ebay.

The plane is very strong, I bounced it off the ground once on a bad takeoff, it hit hard and no damage. I wish i could add a pic for you to see it. i dont know how to do pics here. if you send me an email addy and remind me of what we are talking about i will send you one.
