    Yeah, I just ordered a box of weights as well, they must wonder why all of a sudden they're moving so many!
    Had some Amazon points so I got mine for free. Should be enough to last me a lifetime!

      If we think we have it rough trying to get these to fly, here's an OH SH*T from an actual P12:

        Yikes! A detracted landing gear. Those early pilots went through a lot of trials, very few instruments, no radar, no computer simulation before flight.
        These weights will last my lifetime also but are nice to have.
        Just waiting for a good day to test again. I have balanced, balanced, balanced and checked control movement so many times that my new talking radio yelled out ENOUGH!
        Best Regards, Rex
