Status: offline 		Lift the tail of your plane until the wings and elevator are parallel to the bench, or floor. This is the position the plane assumes on takeoff.

Not knowing the size of your plane at this point, I'd say measure the distance from the propshaft to the ground, but subtract roughly the diameter of your main landing gear tires, to allow for rough terrain, and you should be pretty close.
