Default Angle of incidence?

Hey,

Just scratch building a chipmunk and have used a NACA 2415 for the main wing and a NACA 0010 for the tail plane. I've set the main wing to 0 degrees. What angle should I put the tail plane at? I was thinking somewhere between 0 and -2 degrees.

Also, for the engine thrust line I was thinking 1 degree right and 1 degree down. Does that sound right?

Cheers
