I have a Sudokhoi and a TopCap and I have 3 degrees (measured with machinist tools) right thrust in each. They both still pull a little to the left on extended verticals. Engines are both OS .46's and props are APC 11.5 X 4. This seems like a lot already, I'm a little apprehensive about adding more. Your thoughts? Thanks.

I've heard guys say they use 4.5 degrees, there are still alot of other things to consider like battery location, does the fuse have a slight curve and so on. I put 2 washers on each front motor mount bolt and call it good, oh and my edge I taped a penny to the wingtip at the CG point.

Usually none, but if it pulls too much to the left, I'll add #6 washers until it's minimized. It's different on each plane.

I usually put 2 washers under the front of the motor as well. Then I trim in enough right rudder to keep it straight during a hover. Then I just compensate during the rest of the flight. My main concern is trimming a plane for a Hover/TR/Tailtouch....anything else isnt that important.

Exactly! I couldn't have said it better myself.

Sounds great guys. Appreciate the comments. I'll double check that lateral balance too.
