Yes...the horizontal stab being as you described would absolutely make the airplane require some up trim.

COULD you adjust the wing saddle to offset it? Yeah, probably. SHOULD you? Eh...that's up to you. Depends on how much work you feel like doing. *heh* Will it have other consequences besides just removing your needed trim? Almost certainly.

And you're right...it probably is


Your the second one to recommend that book! A guy at the field suggested it ( also a real pilot )

I probably wont do any major changes to the Tiger other than moving the CG around..
I'll incorperate this knowledge into the next kit build...
