Default Thrust On H9 Cap 232 20%

HI guys i have just got one of the Hanger 9 quarter scale Cap 232. I plan to power it with a OS160FX. Has anyone used this combination, I am wondering it I need to add any right thrust or down thrust? Any comments would be appreciated.
Also props for that motor, I am thinking of a 17 8.

Default H9 Cap 232 Thrust

Look at the firewall -- thrust is already built into it -- just follow engine mounting instructions.

Default Prop

I have that kit with a different engine. As the previous post said just go with the manufacturer. I also have that engine on a different plane. For aerobatic work most use as 18x8. I personally like the Zinger Pro for the price.

Default Thrust On H9 Cap 232 20%

i had exact combo, running mejzlik 18x8 w/ perry pump, actually I added a little more right thrust and quite a bit of up thrust to make plane neutral in a hover and get it to track well on uplines, probably had cowl off 30 times in first 2 weeks just to get it right, hope this helps
