There is nothing wrong with unloading the tail in this fashion.  You
were mearly changing the pitching moment and the zero lift line of the
wing until everything balanced out.  Now, if you kept throwing sand bags
into the the tail cone to achieve the same result you might run into
difficulty.

Chris:
Nice presentation on 25 MAC, center of pressure, etc.

However, it seems to me that if you "put sandbags in the tailcone", you're adding to the tail load, not reducing it. What am I missing?
