I am building a Ziroli Stuka. Just installed the engine firewall with the proper right thrust. Today I found specks for control throws etc on the Ziroli web site. On there it has the 2 degrees right thrust, which I have. But also it lists 2 degrees down thrust. There is no info on the plans to indicate this. Has anyone put in the 2 degrees down thrust? If not will the plane fly OK without it?

I was just doing some more measuring. Also this is my first Ziroli build. So here is a second question. Is the crutch on the Stuka basically the datum line? If so it looks like the down thrust is built in to the front of the firewall supports. Am I in the ballpark?
