Can you take a look at the pics see something I may be missing, All I see is the stab my be ever so slightly tilted left. Measure from prop tips back to vertical fin and the thrust line is dead center. I left the ailerons in the last position of trim when i got it under control and landed, you can see how much they are deflected, the left slightly more than the right. The K&B 61 powered this plane like a rocket and it's sure going to be a fun plane if I can get it to fly straight. by the way the wing struts aren't on in the pics but they are a perfect fit.
