Default RE: Engine Offset In Pattern Plane

Most setups will have very slight down and right thrust. An exact measurement can't be given because every design is different, and will require different amounts. There are some who will try to set up their aircraft with 0 down and 0 right thrust, but the trimming process will reveal the need for a little (very little) in each direction.
