Default RE: applying rudder?


ORIGINAL: nexstar22

the rudder on a plane should never be used to turn a plane, the rudder is simply there to help cooridinate the turn which you are making. at least thats what I use it for in the real planes....
your statement is not quite correct.depends on the design 30 or so years ago I added airlerons to a Sig Aerobipe,a 3 channel design.airlerons only made it roll it would not turn at all,had to use the rudder.it also turned just fine with the rudder and no airlerons
