Default 7hv v2 main shaft tilts forward sitting on flat surface
Hey anyone I was wondering if the shaft and bearing blocks have a forward tilt on 7hv v2. I just bought the kit new and assembled it. It appears when sitting on skids that the shaft and bearing blocks are tilted forward on this awesome machine. Ive owned a few helis and never have noticed this. Is this normal or not. Please chime in!

If it is a raked head then yes, goblins are like this too.

Maybe it is just the way the frame sits on the skids to privide more clearance for the tail

This is normal ... most all of Compass' models have a forward rake. It serves a number of purposes ... one of the most prominent being that it gets the tail higher off the ground.
