My new Dave Patrcik Models Ultimate 40 ARF is not aligned correctly. I'm not really sure what the best way is to attack this problem.

The wings are off, the right wing tip is 1/2" lower than the left. To make matters worse the tail feathers are out the other way. The horizontal stab is low on thge left side by 1/4", and the vertical stab is leaning accordinagly.

I suspect the wing saddle is out a bit. Last night I proved that by slipping a piece of 1/16" balsa between the left wing saddle and wing and got the wings nearly level. I can't decide if I should just carve out the right wing saddle, pad the left wing saddle down a it or both.

I think the tail of the fuse is twisted though since the entire tail is out. The tail was not out like this when I assmbled it, 2 months ago. The plane is stored inside the house so weather conditions were not an issue.

As a teenager I flew planes that were like this, but nowadays I am trying to things the right way, and don't want to lose $800 due to foolishness. FWIW, this is the first plane I have built/assembled in almost 10 years.

Thanks in advance!
