with a place diverter, go down, the wedge will lower the thrust line this way.

my first response is yes but; try it and see. it'll be better than none for sure.as long as you can still get the nozzle angle up enough to ride where you need then it'll be just fine.

I have a 3° wedge on my Kachina and It feels like a 2° will work better for me. I just added an AT droop with the 4° up built in.
Without the wedge my Kachina porpoised bad. Now itdrags too much.

I could have swore that the AT droop has 7.5* pin angle !!!

S.T. I was told 4° but you may be correct. Man that would be one hell of a roost with a 4° with the thicker part down.

The berk is 8* and the Aggressor is 7.5*(reg) 3.5* (short or Mini) and from what I know the AT is 7.5*. I also run 4* down wedge !!!

ST you are correct. 8° is what is stated on Rex marines web page.
