| Back in the days when folks at Lancair still knew what a 320/360 was, I called them to discuss rudder balance since the install manual was not particularly helpful(understatement). When I suggested there wasn't much benefit to adding weight along the leading edge between the hinges, they agreed and recommended that it all go up on top and forward. I ended up extending forward the notch at the top of the VS to accommodate the weight.
As for the top hinged ailerons, just add enough weight so when at rest, the trailing edge is 1/8-1/4" above wingtip.
