I received a set of molded aileron weights from Vern in March that fit my ES
ailerons perfectly. (I have the molded Carbon Fiber ailerons with the flange
at the lower surface of the aileron).  The weights "clip" over and extend
beyond, the forward edge of the flange, run the length of the aileron, and
taper in thickness as they go toward the tip.  I got good aileron range of
deflection with them attached using 1/2" SS self tapping screws.

My intent is to remove the screws, bond them in place, reinsert the screws,
and wrap them with glass cloth to finish the installation. I'm waiting on
doing this sequence until after I prime the ailerons and can do a reasonable
first balance.

The last I heard he was attempting to get more made and available, but was
forecasting the end of September at best.

I very happy with them, not only because they appear to work well, but I was
close to having  to fabricate a mold myself when I received them.
