Model designers build in right thrust for the same reason, as the angle of the slipstream misses the fin.

????????
Actually, you can't build in enough thrust in any direction to get the slipstream to miss the fin.

And the angled fin..... Do you know of any model airplanes that have angled fins? I've not seen one outside of pure scale models and a few free flighters in a very long time in the hobby. But heck, I certainly haven't seen every R/C model made.
