Default RE: thrust angles, important? why?

ORIGINAL: malavivius

i'm thinking of putting together a hanger 9 pulse XT 40

i've seen one where the 2 stroke engine was mounted 90 degrees so exhaust exits under fuse and it looked alot cleaner. i was told by LHS that if i did that it would change the thrust angle and could cause problems. i have no idea about thrust angles and wonder why they are so important?

the only reason i want to have it at 90 degrees is for looks, but i'd rather have a good flying model.

Your LHS rep is an idiot! "and you can quote me on this." This leads me further to say if you need something, ask us here first before you buy something you don't need
