Default GP Venus incidences and down thrust ????

I am assembling a Venus and am curious about the recomended incidences and down thrust.

fuse 0 degrees
stab 0 degrees
wing + .75 degrees
down thrust 1.5 degrees

It seems like this set up would be fighting it self. I am thinking it was set up for low time pilots and knife edge without a pull to the belly. I really believe it would fly better zeroed out.
Anybody got any experience or opinions?

Thanks,
Shawn Stickney / Atlanta

I have my review model done and finished according to spec. Have not flown it yet cuz I'm waiting for the mud to dry out here in jersey. I'll let you know once I get the maiden and follow up flights done but would also like to hear if others tinkered with these specs.
