Good afternoon Guys,
I have a question... I checked my washout on my TF 60 sized Mustang last night and here is what I got... I don't think I will try to change it because I will probably mess it up trying for the half degree...

Left wing at root (right after LE break, about where the retract mounts) - 0 degrees.
Left wing at tip (no ailerons or flaps mounted) - 2 degrees.

Right wing at root - between 0 and 1/2 degree.
Right wing at tip - between 2 and 1/2 and 3 degrees.

Do I have a problem or am I talking about "splitting hairs"? I feel I won't even notice but I am throwing it out there for the expert assessments... Thank you.

Justrfb (checking all my options)

Is this plane still on the bench, or have you flown it or what?

I would guess that it should result in needing a bit of aileron trim -and that it will almost always break to the same side in a straight-ahead stall.

You'll probably notice it in flight, but like John said, a little trim should fix it up. I'd be surprised if only half a degree or so made the plane unflyable.
