My ASW19's 10lb tail weight is clearly visible with the horizontal stab off. No need to remove the rudder just to see if weight has been installed.

Yes, some ships have an easily removable tail weight, normally top of fin easy to see with horizontal tail off..
There may be weight at the vertical spar not seen without removing the rudder. As to easy to see/remove tail weight, I am a skinny SOB, I have to eyeball fixed ballast for the craft owner (he has me by maybe 50lbs.....). |
