Chances are, you will be fine. Seems ARFs these days have fire walls that are well set up for the designers intended engine thrust. I did a maiden for a friend a couple weeks ago, on a Pacific Gee Bee Y that looked to me to have over-kill on the engine thrust. It flew great. Never hurts to check though. No thrust is usually not correct (there are exceptions, like the Meister P-47).

Thanks...

I put the hoz tail on and put the rule on like your suggerstion and yes that looks more inline the way it should look..

Thanks for the insight...
