This seems impossible, because the original one was fairly heavy (broken and repaired), and a stab is generally a .4g piece, so it couldn't result in that kind of weight gain.

My plane is 7.0grams. Around .102 ish rubber, 45(15) winds, 1.4-1.5g. Fairly large wind chord. An ok number of winds left. The front of the wing is 1/8" higher than the back. Center of gravity is around the middle of the wing.
Amatuer wrote:I have a question on my plane. We are flying relatively well, but it seems to be turning in quite a tight circle (about 10 foot diameter). This has been causing quite a bit of problems for us. We are using Ziegler's plane design, thus the tailboom is in a fixed position, making this quite difficult to fix. Do you guys happen to have a solution without adding too much weight?
