I don't know haw the air currents over the canopy are, but the "yaw string" (about 6" of yarn) taped to the fwd. canopy is an extremely sensitive coordination indicator. Has anyone tried this to correct yaw?

Below is the correction to my using the rudder to fly the flying rudder: "Since the rudder is a flying rudder it takes A LOT OF RUDDER PRESURE to turn when my airspeed is 80+ knts. But at 80 knts and below the rudder takes very little pressure to use, and rudder comes in quickly, too quiickly."
