It wasn't bad with the flaps up, but got heavier with them down. I didn't
notice any change in attitude with the Robertson kit, but Power off, Full
flap, Heavy, that airplane would go downhill rapidly. Al

Was it heavier all the time (flaps up) or just when maneuvering with
flaps+15/aileron+10 ?
What is the attitude on final with full flaps?

Yes, it did. After an afternoon of horsing it around, my left elbow was
raw
from the armrest. Made for good upper body strength though. Al

I had suspected that a Rstol kit was available for the 206. Did it make
the
control feel heavy in roll when maneuvering aggressively?

Correct. I flew a turbo 206 with the Robertson kit. It would droop the
ailerons 10 degrees with the first 15 degrees of flap. We regularly
operated
in and out of a 500 foot strip in Southern Oregon for 14 years.
