<DIV>That's about what I figured. I was hoping there was another way, but it doesn't look like it. I am kind of relieved, on occasion I see things like this and am tempted to take a short cut, but always end up doing it the right way. You know what, I have NEVER regretted starting over and doing it right!!!!</DIV>

<DIV>
<P class=MsoNormal><FONT face="Times New Roman" size=3><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">Stabs are mounted and are not adjustable. The wing is not mounted but will not be adjustable. The plans say the the wing should be at positive 2 degrees to whatever the stabs are (preferably 0). If the left stab is at -1 degree and the right is at + 1 degree, what incidence should the wings be mounted at to minimize trim and flight problems?<o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></P></DIV>

<DIV>
<P class=MsoNormal><FONT face="Times New Roman" size=3><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">Should the left wing be positive 1 degree and the right 3 degrees, or should I just make the wings the same to match either of the stabs? I am considering mounting the wings both at + 1 but not quite sure how that would affect flight.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></P></DIV>
