Default A friend of mine is building a Legacy and has a question....

Hey, ask anyone on the rec homebuilt group if they've ever built any
Lancairs and then ask them if they used a 1 degree toe-in on the main
landing gear for the 320, the Lancair 4 or the Legacy. I test drove
mine today and almost lost control of it in yaw on the runway because
it's dead nuts on center with the mains. No where in the manual does it
say you need toe-in, but I have a sneaking hunch that I need a half
degree on each main to keep it from being divergent. I'm going to just
do it if I can't get a response from someone who might know. The
****ing factory doesn't even know....dumb ****s. They are about to go
bankrupt and I can see why!


I forget what toe-in and how much I used on my RV-6....


John
