Ah yes, but will it give you the answer in radians?

They cost $75 but I think it's worth it. You can even calibrate it to zero out in vertical mode. It measures in degrees, angle percentage, and one other means of measurement. You can get them from Sears or OSH (Orchard's hardware). You can buy them with the level bar or without.

The other method there is most likely % of Grade. Like for drainage systems, roads and such.

Default INCIDENCE?

I HAVE THE DP ULTIMATE 120 ARF WITH A SAITO 1.80 FOR POWER. I AM GETTING READY TO MAKE MY MAIDEN FLT THIS WEEKEND AND I WANT TO BE ABSOLUTLEY SURE ABOUT THE INCIDENCE BETWEEN THE WINGS. THE DIRECTIONS DONT REALLY GO TO FAR IN TO DEPTH ON THIS TOPIC.
MY UNDERSTANDING IS THAT YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO HAVE 1 DEGREE POSITIVE IN THE TOP AND ZEROD OUT ON THE BOTTOM WING, IS THIS ACCURATE? AND WHAT IS THE BEST WAY TO CHECK THIS SET UP?
ALL INPUTS WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED!!
