Skyhawk Nose Weight


Recommended Posts

I just realized that I forgot to add nose weight to my skyhawk, but now the fuselauge and wings are assembled B) . I really don't want to crack open the model to get the weight in. Instead, I was thinking of using some kind of heavy liquid-like substance that I could squirt into the hole in the nose wheel well where the gear strut attaches to. Anybody know what would work well for this, or have any other ideas? I really don't want to use a rod to prop up the model when finished. Thanks for your help!

Thanks, everyone. I think I'll try drilling a hole in the nose and adding weight. I hate to do it, but I want the model to sit correctly on its own, and it looks like there's no perfect way to do it without harming the finish. Thanks again!
