I've had a Tower Trainer ready for a maiden flight for some time now. I finally flew it last week in some pretty gusty winds and seemed like it was flying in a nose up, tail down attitude while flying level. I was able to trim it level with some nose down trim. When I got home and looked closely at the plane I noticed the horizontal stab. seems to have a slight nose up angle with the fuselage level. Is that normal for the Tower Trainer, because it is a trainer and it helps to keep the nose up?

If I am reading your description right of the horizontal stab. with the front raised it would cause a nose down effect. It would be like adding down trim.

Yes, it's normal for some models to have slight nose up angle for the horizantal stab.
There's plenty of books or informtion you can google on basic of R/C flight.

Did you put foam under the main wing ? Sometimes the wing won't sit at the proper angle becuase of the foam.

You can also try adjusting both of the airleron (lower both sides slighty) If the airlerons are sitting sligthly too high
in neutural posistion , it'll cause a model to fly nose up.

You also try adding washers behind the engine mount to change the engine angle....I'd try adjusting the airlerons first.

It's also normal for a model to gain altitude if you add more power. Sort of like flying into a headwind. you know...more lift

Since you are new I'm going to ask if you are sure it is the horizontal stab (non-moving part) or the elevator (moving part) that you are asking about. Newbies frequently confuse the two.

Thanks for some advice. I have been flying an LT-40 for about a year now and I guess I am just use to flying it. I will take the Tower Trainer out again on a calm day so I can get my trims right. Thanks

Be sure to recheck your CG before you fly again !!!! ENJOY !!! RED

I don't know what trainer you have but when you turn on the receiver and transmitter
center the slider adjustment on the transmitter.
You may have to adjust the control linkage.
That may be your only problem.

Is this the ARF or the kit... I have built the kit and the horiz stab looks level on mine with th fuse level. I have found that the tail will drag and the nose will rise in aileron only turns. A bit of rudder in the directon of the turn really helgs it fly through the turn and not slip so much. I think it's because of all the dihedral.
