I was thinking recently about ground loops and flaperons and
adverse yaw and crosswinds. I can understand how
one needs a rudder for sideslips, but beyond that:



Looking at your posts (this one and those concerning crosswind
landings), I come to the conclusion that you have a problem with correct
rudder use.

Is anyone making a modern competition glider without adverse yaw using
frise ailerons?


I don't know the origin of the legend that rudder is only needed to
compensate for adverse yaw. As a proper turn is a movement around all
three axis, you always need all three controls, with or without adverse yaw.
