Default Engine thrust angles

I posted this earlier in the ARF or RTF forum and decide it might be more suitable for this forum. I'm in the process of assembling a Tiger Stick 40 to fly as my 2nd plane. I'm installing an OS 46 FXi on it an I'm wondering what I should use for the optimum right and down thrust angles. The manual suggests up to 2 degrees right angle but makes no mention of down angle thrust. Opinions of the guys at the club are all over the map on this one so some good advise would be appreciated.
