l have several interchangeable tail boom/stab assemblies for my A6. They all display the same phenomena. The tilt of the stab during flight is different from the tilt at rest. In every case during flight (even after the torque is burned off & the plane is in decent) the left side of the stab is tilted higher than it is at rest. All my stabs are different but they are all symmetric. I.E. the left panel is a mirror image of the right panel. And there is no discernible differential wash in/wash out from side to side. Of course, the degree of twist is dependent upon the rigidity of the boom, but all my tail assemblies display this phenomena to some extent. What aerodynamic force would explain this? Is this "normal" on duration models?
