the tail on a telemaster is not generating lift, even with a flat bottomed airfoil. And you wouldn't want it to -

Maybe you could explain how this is possible. That statement alone tells me you dont undestand what I am talking about or the fundimentals of aerodynamics.
tripower222,
Perhaps you should google some of the following concepts and how they relate to each other: Longitudinal stability, static stability, force diagrams, and tail moments. You will see which way the horizontal tail vector points in a conventional, statically stable design. Enjoy.
