Vikiing Question
« on: November 22, 2023, 07:33:04 AM »
Building the Brodak Viking.  I am wondering if there should be any engine offset?  The plans do not call for it.  It does have rudder offset.

  Engine offset, 1 to 2 degrees right, 1 degree down. I set every model I have up like that. Read Bob Whitley's article on "Things That Always Work" in a Stuntnews.  It may even be pinned on the site here somewhere. As for rudder, make it adjustable, and stat out with just a tiny bit right.
