Is this normal design for vertical stab alignment?

Looks about right. You need some means of right thrust for a clockwise engine, ie. Continental. You may also give some right thrust to the engine itself. That's what I have done.

Wow !Too me Bill, that’s huge off set !
I had no off set at all on my first fin and I have put about 1/2” on my rebuild, but my first one flew quite ok with out any at all, I just got sick of holding a little pedal in all the time. ( it really was very minor) and I am running an 0320.
The pic looks like that’s R/H yaw and yours is still going left despite this off set. In responding to your other email at the same time; this is not right. Something is a bit strange.
What engine have you got ? ( 0200 ?)
Is there engine mount off set ?
When I did my wheel alignments, I did it using the fuselage centre line by plumb bob on to the floor and back to the tail post centre line . Then did my main wheels lines Paralell to the centre line. Check the camber is the same on both wheels as well as the toe in/out. The camber will change the toe in out as the tail moves up & down. Its not much but, if you have a couple of other things not quite right its the smallest thing that finally turns it into a leg biter. Was the track off set on your main wheels L/H toe out & R/H toe in ? Measure it all again .

Seems a little more agressive offset than required. Mine is out about 3/4” and is fine.

Certainly would turn right at idle when landing. It is humbling when I go across the grass. However is does expedite my taxi back to the hanger😀
