It is like any other tail setup, you trim for neutral forces. Where the elevator winds up is apparently a function of c.g. mostly. To have a longitudinally stable aircraft the tail has to be generating some downforce, it can't be neutral.

I'm going to forget about the Beringer wheel, and just delete the Vans parts and order from Matco, wheel, axle etc. I think I will also delete the tire/tube combo Vans sells as well, and buy the Dresser tire/tube that most have ended up using.
