Total ballast is 49 pounds. Weights are painted red. No changes were made to the engine mount or nose gear support struts. The 2180 VW had already been moved 2-inches forward from KR-2 plans call-out and flown. https://s3.amazonaws.com/expercraft/sidwood/30127830554d4d2790ba9.jpg https://s3.amazonaws.com/expercraft/sidwood/1839866186554d4dbd2a315.jpg Will do weight & balance next week. My goal is to have cg at 9 inches with me and half fuel on board. Last flight in August 2014 same loading with cg at 12 inches was definitely unsatisfactory!
