It is scale when it is all lined up!!!

Bam Bam.... the coupling is not a function of thrust-wing-stab alignment.... it has to do with very asymetric flow around the fuse, fin and rudder.... There is a fin adjacent to the top side of the stab and only a rounded stubby fuselage bottom surface adjacent to the lower side of the stab...... Often it is hard to completely design out as P-Factor from the prop prolly adds an element of irritation to the mix
