Hi, I had today a closer look into this issue.
I got a drawing of the OM of a c172 which shows the the pitch angle with
compressed nose gear.
I tried to rotate the model but then I found something which shows me that the
problem lies on the fdm: at cruise speed about 100kias I got a pitch about 0.3-
0.55 degres.
Myself and some others in IRC-Chat noticed that the model is hardly to steer on
the ground and lift of itself without touching the controls or the trim. I
don't know, but could it be that the cg of the aircraft isn't right which makes
all these?
Attached the drawing from the OM.
Cheers
HHS
