Default Shoestring Engine Thrust

I'm about to install a Tower .75 with a Bisson pitts muffler in the Shoe. Looks like the firewall has about 2 - 3 degrees of right thrust built in, but no downthrust relative to the centerline of of the wing chord. How are you guys setting up your mounts, any downthrust needed for a Tower .75 two stroke? Thanks, Joe

Default Shoestring Engine Thrust

I had a Magnum 61-2 on mine for awhile, then switched it over to a 91-4. I didn't have any problems at all. It flies great. I didn't do anything special like putting in any downthrust.
