I'm probably going to find a flight school that has an ALURUS on the line and book
some time before I build the gear.
It's just that, in my flying experience, the yaw trim needs adjustment every new
heading or change in wind direction. If the ball is not in the center, then
the aircraft is producing more drag than necessary, the ride feels "weird", and
you are burning more fuel. A detent in the yaw control will make an electric
trim system difficult to implement. I don't care for ground adjustable tabs,
so it would be either no trim or electric trim/no detent. I understand the part
about rigging the rudder for the detent. Maybe that is where I should look to
making an in flight adjustable yaw trim, rather than a tab/servo arrangement.
Hmmmm. That approach would take some serious thought.
Again, I'll have to book some time and see for my self, I have lots of time before
I have to cross that bridge anyway. right now cash flow has more to do with
progress than time.
