A conversion from 13mm t' 18mm for A8-3 and B6-4 flights. Blimey! Small amount o' nose weight added t' move t' C/G forward. Begad! All other build steps were t' same.

T' .16 oz. Arrr! o' nose weight was enough t' compensate for t' heavier B6-4 engine and gave a very stable flight.
T' Chinese made Quest engine really gave a good ride t' about 400'. Begad! Full chute at ejection and a long recovery walk because o' t' wind.
