Default RE: STAB INCIDENCE

Confusing? It's not a simple thing to work out the AOI for a tail. I probably used a wrong word here or there, in fact.

But bottom line is that with models, the AOIs aren't super critical. Get the wing AOI wrong and the plane flies tail high or tail down. Get the stab AOI wrong and the plane will need more pitch trim than it would have otherwise.

No real dangers.
