Default 4*40 Thrust Angle Question

Hi all. Sorry for another 4* thread but after pages and pages I never found my answer.

I have aquired a 4* and am mounting a new 4 stroke engine. My question is -0deg- thrust angle or 1-2deg of right thrust?

This has been giving me fits to get it to -1deg- right and I put a squre on the F1 only to find out its got about -2deg- left thrust in the F1.

Someone lemme know before I bolt it all down!

Thanks!
Shane

I'm pretty sure my 4*40 is 0deg (OS52 with a Dave Brown engine mount.) Fly it and see what you think. If you need right thrust put a washer or two under engine mount.

You really won't notice a problem outside the uplines on your 3D routine
