I will put a incident meter on the herk to confirm the incident after I get my current big bird off the table. I do agree that a neg incident is correct. I lowered the leading edge on my stab by 1/8" for each flight until I finally got it "right?". Mine is removable much like the post of the black bird. I was concerned about the strength of the stab so I orientated my servos spanwise to reduce cutting the stab. I am flying with 2 standard 40 oz servos on the elevator. This bird flies relatively slow and these servos do work well. I have 22 flights currently and the weather is improving so hopefully I will put it in the air next week. I will check the incident when I pull it out for flight. Glad the information I provided has been helpful. If I built this bird again I would use saito .40 vs the .30 I used. They do fly well, but a little extra would not help.

One caution though. If you lose an outboard engine you will have to work to fly the bird. I had the #1 engine sag out on takeoff once and the yaw was pronounced to the left. I was only about 6' off the ground and when corrected the right wing dropped and just missed the ground. What saved the bird was pulling the throttle back to 3/4 to allow #1 to richen up in the mid range and I lowered the nose, this allowed me to fly it out with a shallow climb. The cause was a bad gal of fuel. I worked the mfg. and talked to the owner who agreed and worked the fuel issue. This was a major commercial fuel. Hopefully we all now have better fuel.
