I would imagine there would be a small nose down component of the thrust vector - automatic stall prevention when you add power on panic go-a-round {:>).   Also for cruise you may have to adjust the pitch angle of the horizontal stab - or fly with a bit of nose up trim.  You may find it necessary to adjust your elevator trim more frequently (than what?) to compensate for different thrust/power levels of the engine.  But, since once at cruise we tend to leave the power setting set- probably not much of a bother.  All the time Assuming this is a tractor installation of course {:>)

Subject: [FlyRotary] Center line thrust

Does anyone know what the effect would be on airframe to raise the center of thrust for the crankshaft 1.5 " higher then original design?

Kind regards
