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. Stefan |
