Default RE: 28%300spec thrust??

Danny,

As the plane slows down going vertical, with the engine still pulling strong, the torque will require some right rudder to correct a pull to the left, but as I found out with my Edge, there's more involved than thrust angels here. Also check your lateral balance, both static and dynamic, and make sure to match your elevator half throws. The WH planes tend to have the thrust angels correct from the factory, built in a jig you know, so check the easy things first. Get a copy of Peter Goldsmith's trim chart and go through it. It Works!
