Default Robbe Seawolf Dive Question.

Just have a dive question for the Seawolf. The boat dives automatically as speed is increased due to the angle of the front dive planes. I have done my model with working rear dive planes as well. What angle do the rear dive planes have to be at to hold back the dive, if the rear of the dive planes are tilted downwards does that encourage the boat to dive - if I run the boat with the rear planes tilted upwards slightly will that help prevent the dive, or am I totally mixed up with my idea? Hope someone can clear this up for me. I once found a web site which showed the various angle of the dive planes and their effect - but of course I can't find it now......

Thanks

Ian.
