It is a tail sitter and the weights supplied with the kit are inadequate. I'm hollowing out the engine to fill with lead shot.

Are you sure you assembled the ball bearing of the engine right? 😉
Lovely build so far. Count me in.

Very funny Michael! Thank you. The kit is a bit of a challenge to get everything to line up properly. I am definitely taking my time on this one!
