Hi Najary,

I had left mounting the T-cannalizer as the final step in the model, thinking this would be an easy step. Attached is a photo of my newly discovered situation. With the airplane jigged-up at zero degrees (canopy line and stab), the T-Can is more than 1.0 degree positive. In order to see how much I would need to adjust the T-Can, I added a 1/8" spacer underneath the trailing edge of the T-can as shown in the photo. This is still not enough to bring the T-Can to "zero" degrees.

I am thinking to trim the bottom of the T-can to get the correct angle. I will need to trim (starting at the LE) about 3/16" off.

Did your T-can arrive at the correct incidence, or did you need to go though a sanding to get it to sit at zero degrees?

Thank You,

Jim W.
Hi Jim,

My T-can did not arrive at the correct incidence, I needed to go though a sanding process to get it to sit at zero degrees.

See post 159, 160 first pic.
