Trojan Help
 
Just started to put together my parkzone trojan and I notice that the prop doesnt look straight. The bracket that is attached behind the cowl looks on an angle to the left slightly. Is this normal and will this cause a problem do you think?

Not a good start to the build!

Actually I believe you mean "angles to the right", if you are looking at the prop from the cockpit.

Yes this is perfectly normal.

You'll find that the prop also angles down just a bit too.

This is required to make the plane fly correctly.

Think about all of that torque the prop creates, that is trying to move an almost frictionless object in the air.

Yep, the Parkzone T-28 has some pretty pronounced right and downthrust awhich seems to be more noticeable to the eye than some other planes. It needs to be there and works great though and the plane flys excellent.
