Default 46% Ultimate SetUp?

I'm remember reading somewhere about changing the incedence for the wings and stab?
Top wing negative 2% LE down
Stab positive 2% LE up
Also upthrust for engine (DA-150) 2%
Are these the numbers I should be shooting for? Also any other Mods I should consider?
Thanks Guys!

no, Use the bottom wing as the 0 reference. top wing 1/2 deg LE dow. Stab about 2 deg LE up. Engine 1.5 to 2 deg up thrust.

Thanks Mike, I'm going to glue the Stab on so I wanted to make sure.

I got one of the first planes out and I'd think twice about gluing the tail on. It really helps to be able to remove the tail if you need to worrk on the plane. I havn't havn't had any problems with the tail being bolted on' and have had to remove it a couple of times when it was in the shop. Having the tail off made it a lot easier to put it on a stand up-side down. This winter I will be recovering the plane and being able the remove the tail will make the job alot easier. Dennis
