RIGGING - YAW ISSUES was created by Andre Fodor
Good evening,
Looking for some practical and real world experiences… Yes, I have all the bulletins, manuals and rigging information, and yes, I have an experienced A&P and inspector working with me.Rigging flight controls. I have a 1946 415C, no rudder pedals. Airplane flies straight and trimmed when level and cruise speed, slow flight and climb. However, only when landing (low power, descending and yes, zero wind), the airplane yaws to the right almost as it need a touch of left rudder from the approach phase to flare. I am wondering if I need to adjust the rudder turnbuckle for a little left pressure. Not sure if I should adjust the left or right rudder, etc. I also have a small fixed trim tab on the right rudder, about 4 inches long.
The airplane was recently rigged according to the service manual.
Insights and experiences and ideas would be very valuable.
