Scott:

The saddle for the tail on the Venom is not correct, and will end up causing you to need a LOT of up trim to get it to fly correctly. I checked all of this using my 3D CAD capabilities and have coordinated it with Dan Kane. He agreed with my analysis. You will need to lower the leading edge of the stab about 3-32" to 1/8" to get the saddle to line up at 0 deg. I attach a .pdf of the tail saddle. The black outline is the fuselage "as cut", and the purple line is what is needed to get the tail to sit at 0 deg aoa. Several fliers in this area have built Venom's from the Super T kits, and all have had issues with the tail angle. I am not sure if Super T has corrected this in the current batch, but you should check before you glue things together. Also, the outline shown is the intersection of the V-tail with the OUTER surface of the fuselage side and thus you must bevel the inner edge of the fuselage side to allow the tail to sit correctly.

Thanks for all the help you give!
