For those who are unaware it has built-in positive incidence on the horizontal stabilizer. This was designed for those who don't know how to take-off a tail dragger. It took me buy surprise when the tail popped up after releasing up elevator. In the air with the throttle set at 75% it took some down trim to compensate for the stab placement.
ok how do i test for these ???
