I had a rudder flutter problem if I didn't keep constant pressure on the rudder
pedals. After many years of experimenting I tried doubling heavy springs. It
worked. No more flutter. There is no increase in rudder pedal resistance because
the springs neutralize their force equally. Can fly with feet on the deck
without rudder flutter.
