Default RE: New Fleet (needing repairs)

Hey Zach, sorry about your uncle.

Not sure what you mean by offset. However most engines are offset in an angular deflection to compensate for torque, as well as additional lift while power is being applied.

My EZ glider elect has a downward deflection of at least 3-4 deg. I have never actually measured it , but it is very noticeable by eye. Even so, I have to use a lot of down elev to compensate while using full power.

I am sure you will get a more precise answer to your ??s as there are a lot ov very talented/knowledeable folks here.

Aloha, Les
