You can't necessarily go by that. If you have a wing incidence meter, set the tail to level, or if it is flat, use the level on that. Then see if your engine is 90 deg or has some down thrust. The tail should be parallel to the center line of the fuselage, but the wing may have some incidence in it.

i dont have a meter, and have not put the tail feathers on yet, I will get that done first and try your suggestion.. I might have gotten ahead of myself, but it just caught my eye and looked more of a up-thrust than any of my other arf builds..

Thanks

Brent
