Default RE: Predator tail incidence

I have a predator and the kit doesnt seem to come very well cut for tail incidence.
The incidence of the saddle may be off. But something you might not have realized is that the stab saddle will look like it has down in it. This is because the fuselage sides are at an angle. If you make the stab saddle look like it is level with the wing saddle, you will have a lot of up in the stab.

If you don't have an incidence meter, they make a valuable addition to your shop. The [link=http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXET66&P=7]Robart Wing Incidence Meter[/link] is only $27 and is the prefered meter by many. I also like the [link=http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXPW71&P=7]Great Planes AccuPoint Laser Incidence Meter[/link] for $20. It used to come with a small bubble, but they don't say that explicitly on the Tower page. I believe it probably still does as I don't remember it being mentioned back when I got my two.
