i do this thrust angle on maiden flights, i will only trim ale and start doing vertical climbs till i get a good read on what its doing. i want both elv and rudder centered and thrust angle on the motor adjusted to achieve near straight climbs. afterward i can worry about cg by flying canopy up, trim it, and then inverted. since i know my thrust angle is ok the planes reaction is probably going to be cg related only.

i found that if my rudder isn't centered it will cause wing rock in harriers.
