Noseweight
Re: Noseweight
Here's some stuff I put together on noseweight.
http://www.doug79.com/noseweight/
It presents several methods for having adjustable weight. I prefer the weight to be nearer the aft end of the cone, for safety, but some of my older stuff shown here has it all the way forward.
Nowadays, I prefer to err on the side of safety - ie, to make the nosecones unstable - rather than trying to get minimal mass.
YMMV.
