Posted for "John Wright" <jwrightdo@worldnet.att.net> to eliminate dual
formatting:

I would like to get the group's input on what to do when you need more
counter weights on the rudder and pilot's side elevator that tend to be
trailing edge heavy due to the trim motors located there.  Opinions on the
weights that Lancair sells that attatch to the elevator weildment?  Adding
weight onto the counter weight areas and removing some of the horizontal
stab and vertical to make room for it?  These aircraft must be very
forgiving since I've been flying it for 250 hrs.  with the counter weights
significantly out of balance.
