Default RE: Down Elevater to fly level?

95% sure it'll be an incidence issue.
If it has the scale incidence built it 'll certainly climb dramatically due to the low weight/high power our models have compared to the full size.
Because its a carrier aircraft... max lift was needed in the shortest distance.
Having said that, it's a H9 sports scale so I'd have guessed they'd sorted that out and normalized it for RC use.
You can counter this with down thrust (not all but it'll help) or/and mix down evelator to throttle.
Don't know exactly which H9 H'cat you have but if you look at this clip, this model certainly seems to be flying tail low.
