Default RE: weight VS stability

Also if you can fly it slower at altitude you can fly it on to the runway. like a slow touch and go and cut your throttle at touch. I got this from the hz super cub I cant land it without power

Oh Boy.......

adding weight is never the best option to improve performance.

Adding weight to a plane that already lands too fast is like adding fuel to a fire.

Try making the plane lighter by substituting lighter onboard equipment and also work on moving the CG back in increments until you can flare the model on a deadstick final.
