Default Thrust and Incidence Question??

I am working on a 110" B-24. Will be powered by 4 .40 2 strokes and weigh around 20-22lbs. It is being built from a foam and glass kit with little to no instructions, and what I do have are not very accurate. There are no specs for thrust or incidences included, so I am planning on using the info from Dan Palmers 112" B-24. His design is set up with 3deg positive on wing 2 deg positive on stab and 0 on engines.
My question is, will this be ok for my bird?
I am including a pic of the airfoil for the wing, and the stab has a symmetrical airfoil, if it makes a difference.
Thanks

The specs you mention will work well on your 24. Its the same as the AE B17 & 24 and they fly well set up like this....Lenny
