HI guys and gals...got a ? for those who have used tungsten for elevator weight.I am replacing the hinges on my 320 and noticed my elv .is no longer balenced as it was before first flight, counterweight arm is 1/8" high.was thinking of drilling out some lead and replacing with tungsten,how much heavyer is tungsten and were can I buy some.

Lead is 10.5 gr/cc
Tungsten is 17 to 18 gr/cc   Depending on alloy.
Do a google serarch for tungsten.  CMW 1000 is one alloy.
