Default RE: B-29 SUPERFORTRESS BUILD THREAD

Have been building a Don Smith 169 inch B29 since Easter, the wing is well on the way. I have fitted the 4 DLE 20cc motors, there is a built in 3 degrees down thrust but I can not find any reference to side thrust. Having built a 14 ft Catalina, both motors 3 degrees thrust out wards & a 12 ft 6 inch Spruce Goose, all zero side thrust (figured if you lost one, there's still 3 so it hardly matters, proved correct). Could someone advise me on this. I was also wondering if 4 bladed props have been used on the DLE20's & what size & pitch.
