Default Twin tail alignment

We are building Ziroli 118" B-25. It's all framed up and we are installing the hardware prior to final finishing. It has 2 G-45's so it has plenty of power.

The question is:

Are the rudders supposed to be set at "0" straight ahead or should they be toed in or out?

We just got done photographing a full sized B-25 up close and I can't see any "toe" on the rudders. We took a bunch of pictures. It looks straight ahead to us.

We'll be using a gyro on the rudders and possibly on the ailerons, both will be able ot be adjusted from the transmitter.

thanks
