I just started flying a plane I haven't flown in 2 years. It pulls to the gear during left rudder KE and to the canopy in right rudder KE. It otherwise is a fantastic flying airplane - it's a 1.20 size Yak54 that flies better than my Wind 110.
How common of a coupling is this, or does it sound like a crooked fuse or something? What would be a typical cause?
Brian,
Joe stated his condition here. It isn't backwards. Top left, push to belly, top right pull to canopy.
You are wrong is stating the elevators have no effect. You are also wrong in stating spiral airflow has no effect on knife flight.
It is possible that Joe's wing incidences, right and left may be off and he should make sure that it they are set correctly before doing anything else.
