RE: ENGINE DOWN AND RIGHT THRUST
 
As an example for a 4Star60:
wing - +1/2 degrees
stab - 0 degrees
downthrust - 2 degrees down
sidethrust - 0 degrees

trimming - added 2 - 2 1/2 degrees left thrust.

RE: ENGINE DOWN AND RIGHT THRUST
 
Tony you should show up at a contest in your area. Once you watch the patterns being flown and you get your chance to fly the pattern, a whole new world of understanding how to trim a plane will open up for you. I started with an Ultrasport 40 not able to make it past 3 manuevers. The guys helped me trim my plane and next thing you know I was battling for first at many of the contests I flew that year.
