Default Zero decalage


I'm drawing plans for a zero to build this winter. The scale drawings show 1 1/2 degrees positive on the stab and 4.5 degrees pos on the wing compared to the thrust line. This leaves 3 degrees on the wing compared to the tail. Does this seem excessive? First zero build.

The wing tip incidence shows the same as the tail (if it's accurate); this would mean 3deg washout.
