Wow---what a great idea!!!

Would it work for nose or tail weights???  No telling how much that will save........

Cheers,

Uh, yea. Sure.

Leave out the tipweight entirely. Fill the inner wing panel with helium instead.

Nah, you have to put it in a sealed tip weight box, Helium will find any leak path and leak out!

If you use aluminum the resolution for fine tuning tip weight would be much higher.

The Jive Combat Team uses gold.

Everbody knows that a 1/2A plane usually uses 2 pennies for tip weight.  So for bigger planes one can
use five dollar bills.  If a couple of those doesn't work, take em out and use 10 dollar bills, or 20's etc....
I tried blobs for tip weight too, but the problem is the whole plane will turn into a blob.
If you want to save weight for the tip weight, use water.  Eventually it will evaporate, and will weigh
nothing.  Bottled water is probably better.  But money seems to work better, although it's value
changes throughout the day.
  Has anyone tried diamonds?  Is it safe? Is it safe?
