Default Yaw


Ive gotten thru the trainer stage and it's on to my second plane. It's a 4th hand Rascal in which Ive put my old OS40 LA.

The CG is spot on and all control surfaces have the proper throws. I have both down thrust and 2 Deg right thrust on the engine. Its not a barn burner but does well in takeoffs, rolls etc.

However, in turns it sometimes refuses to turn and wants to fly sideways. It a word, its Yaw infected.

Is my setup wrong or do I just have to go to Rudder School to get thru my turns.

Appreciate your help.

Bob
