Somethin Extra right thrust
Im putting together the SE ARF and it appears not to have any right thrust built in to the firewall. When I checked with SIG, they said to put the mounts on as-is(no right thrust added). Is it needed or not?
Opinions please!!
Thanks

I never measured mine to see if there was any or not. Assembled as is, other than the elevator and rudder pushrods, flys great (OS 50SX).

I'm not sure about the ARF version, but by eying my kit version, it appears that there is right thrust added for you in the firewall.

I have an ARF and it didn't appear to have any right OR down thrust at all. Flies great!

my arf seem to not have any. I did put a shim worth of right but that was about it. I didnt fly it enough to really trim it out.

the plans on the kit version specify it, and IIRC, it IS 0 and 0, I'll double check tonight to make sure.
Either way, don't worry about it. both versions have it built into the firewall if needed, don't add any to the engine mount.
