I've noticed that my 11AC seems to want when going completely hand and feet off, that the plane will want to bank and turn to the right. Even when solo from the left seat.
I have to keep very light right rudder pressure and very light left aileron pressure to keep it flying on heading.
My ailerons on the ground are rigged so that each aileron on each wing are very slightly drooped the same amount in the neutral position compared to the trailing edge of each wing. The rudder trim tab is bent a fair but not extreme amount as if to add right rudder (bent to the left looking from behind)
Because of the left stick needed, I don't think just bending the rudder trim tab will solve the situation.
What adjustment in rigging needs to be made? Washout on one wing? which one (should more washout be put into one or should some washout be taken out of the other?)
Out of rig Chief?

That's not out of rig......when it goes inverted when you let go..... that's out of rig!flyingfool wrote:I've noticed that my 11AC seems to want to bank and turn to the right. Even when solo from the left seat.
