Default need help with torque roll....

i recently got a skyartec funjet. its a decent RTF pusher jet.
it was alittle underpowered, but i put a 7x5 prop(stock was a 6x4) and that helped alot.
but there is noticable torque roll(to the left)
i know that on my dynam cub and HZ super cub the prop shaft is angled to help counter-act the torque roll.
can anyone tell me how i should angle my motor to help counter-act the torque roll?
its not terrible now, but i plan on putting a 3200kv motor in place of the 1800kv motor. im guessing that a more powerful motor might increase the torque roll.

i gotta say, this plane is FUN! even tho its still alittle underpowered, i can do some sweet rolls-stall turns- and even alittle high alfa(needs more power tho)
i will try to get a vid of it as it is stock(with the better prop)
"pic is just to let you know what plane im talking about, pic was before i put it together"
