Default Rudder

I just have to say that learning to fly on a 3 Channel makes you

more aware of the Rudder and what it does. Being that is your

main contoll of the plane beside elevator. I was taught from a

old timer on a Kadet Sr. 3 Channel and flew it for a year. A lot

of my buddies in the club told me why bother on a 3 chanell but

I did it anyway. Its made me very aware now of the differance

between aileron and rudder. We had 4 training pilots in our club

crash their planes in the past due to misunderstading of ailerons

and rudder. Tip stalls on final Crosswind take offs ETC. My point

is it helped me. 6planes later Flying smooth and understanding

how I was trained ....... Happy Flying
