Hi,
I just finished doing the final rigging and discovered that my "Y" tail is about 3 degrees off which is likley do to a slight built-in twist in the fuseladge.
Does anyone have any knowledge on how this may affect the flyability of the plane?

You'll probably want to check with the factory tech support for an official answer on this one, but my guess is that you won't have any issues and your plane probably won't know the difference.
Good luck!

Hopefully, it's twisted the proper way to counter engine torque in cruise. Zero rudder deflection from not needing a rudder trim tab would be cool. If it's the other way then...oh well... :D

I would think that it only would be felt when the elevator is used. i.e. with forward elevator slight yaw to the left and aft elevator slight yaw to right. Does that make sense?
