    I've read that for single-prop drives, the tie bar should be adjusted with some toe-in or toe-out depending on direction of prop rotation.  For dual-prop drives, set them straight.

    @LaRea, yes I was almost sure  that they should be straight but not positive.

    Thanks everyone , thanks Graham for posting. Dual prop, I made them parallel on the weekend and what a difference.

    I noticed today that my drives toe in. Will adjust to parallel.
