[NSRCA-discussion] Rudder

[JShulman]

weathervane by cause of wind. If you straighten the plane out to look
vertical, the track (actual line drawn) will move with the wind and not be
vertical and be cause for a downgrade. Someone has a clip from the rule book
covering all parts of this.

  Do you mean crab (induce by rudder) or weathervane as if the wind is
applying a force upon the tail and causing a turn toward the wind about the
vertical axis.

    Hi Bob,

    The airplane should weathervane into the wind, as long as the track of
the plane is straight (track- actual line/path of the plane).

      Some great ideas.

      I'm going to give the 60-70% rudder expo a shot and see how it works.



      I'd like to do the stall turns on low rate, as Jason reccommends, but
when stall turning into the wind my practice airplane will not go vertical
(on the downline) unless I have high rates (it weathervanes slightly towards
the wind).



      I also liked John Pavlick's recommendation on the two consecutive
rolls.  I'm probably being too anal in coordinating rudder, aileron and
elevator because I always seem to run out of room.



      So much to learn and the damn winter is coming!



      Thanks guys,



      Bob Wilson
