All three just installed. 12 pounds off the front end. Feels like a different plane. My normal take off trim settings are out the window. 12 pounds doesn't sound like much, but it was very noticeable.

Prop spins stupid fast. I mean, really stupid fast. Like you can't see it turning fast.

Great way to gain some UL, move your CG forward and not worry about starting. Once it gets hot outside, I'll check the hotstart performance too. I opine hot starts will become a non issue though.
