Interesting replies but far from the truth. Depending upon the total area of the stabilizer it will bank/roll opposite the misalignment. I purchased an ARF with a twisted fuselage that I overlooked until the maiden flight and found the airplane wanted to roll left. Fortunately I was able to shim the stab and problem solved.
