Default RE: Setting Wing Incidence, Help

A word of caution: Not all bipes have 0 incidence on the hor. stab, very few have 0 incidence on the upper and lower wing , down thrust also veries greatly from plane to plane . BE SURE of the proper settings for your Plane per your plans .....
I would highly recomend that you set the incidence with the "datum" or "thrust" line leveled and the fuselage
stabilized . This may help reduce the chance of incorrectly setting up your plane .
With the datum line level - set your incidences to spec. , double and triple check settings
VERY IMPORTANT : ZERO YOUR METER ON A LEVEL SUFACE before attempting to setup plane .
