Default RE: Building a HouseofBalsa P-51

This was a popular plane at our club field back in the early '90s. I built one for a friend but have never flown one persnally. I do remember a popular mod was to change the wing incidence a degree or two negative. The complaint was that it tended to climb too much at high speeds. Pilots claimed it flys much more like a pattern plane with this mod. Anyone out there tried this? Most used ball bearing .25s or .32s. but I think the FP .40 is also a good choice.
