Something I find funny is when I try to see how much my plane will roll or drop the nose when I use my rudder, or how much the tail will sag if I don't use rudder, and I see the plane makes a perfect turn! I think, 'hmm, that was odd...' just as I realize I was coordinating the turn without thinking about it!

What I learned is that when exactly to use the rudder, and how much, etc. is pretty much personal preference. I thought there was 'one way' to properly coordinate a turn. Then I found out that many of the experienced pilots, even the best pilots at my field, don't even use rudder unless they're flying 3D or landing. Some people say they initiate the turn with rudder. Some people like to make flat turns. I don't even know if can say exactly what I do - I think most of the time I use A/E and feather the rudder through the turn; sometimes I make flat turns, sometimes I use just rudder and elevator.

Like I said I don't think there is 'one way' to use the rudder or make a turn, the way is just to use the control surfaces effectively to do what you want the plane to do. Again, the exception being take-off and landing. Here it is important to use the ailerons to control the 'levelness' of the plane, and the rudder to steer the plane on and off the runway.

There are definitely all kinds of people with all kinds of experience here on RCU. Some seem like know-it-alls, some really do know it all. I imagine most of us just like to fly planes, talk about flying planes, and help others out so they can share the AMAZING satisfaction that comes out of this hobby.
