Do a weight and balance where you add a few pounds to the extreme end of the tail
boom and see. With that much moment arm, it will only take a few pounds at
most. 
Just be sure and placard it so that no one less than xxx number of pounds ever
tries to fly it. My buddy Ed had a Hummer that was balanced for him, and a prospective
buyer took it for a flight. Problem was that Ed weighed 250 and the buyer
weighed ~ 175 - it was a wonder he got it back on the ground safely.

Forgiving is tough, being forgiven is wonderful, and God's grace really is amazing.
