Default RE: Engine thrust angles

Not sure you should have any down thrust on an aerobatic airplane with a symetrical airfoil. Remember it will be up thrust when you are upside down. Same with right thrust. Now if you are using it as a trainer, then 1 to 2 degrees down thrust and two degrees right thrust might be helpful but not required on that model.
