I have two Phantoms flying and have helped set up others. With the Tam pipe I set 5 degrees down turbine angle and match Tam pipe to 5 degrees down. No pitch change with throttle at all. Same situation with bent pipe. Set engine level at 0 and measure pipe at rear and move till it is 5 degrees down resulting also in no pitch changes with throttle!!! Then fabricate bulkhead to hold pipe in place.
