So I could use some speculations here. I'm stumped. I'm still in phase 1. First 15 hours I noticed I don't need a whole lot of rudder in cruise. Just barely put some weight on the pedal and it's good.
First two flights after putting the pants on and I needed a lot of rudder in cruise. Goes faster too. I figured maybe a pant was not aligned well. After two landings (both nice soft touchdowns and 3.5 hrs of flight time) the rudder is back to the way it was before. Just put some weight on the right pedal and the ball centers.
I checked the pants and fairings and they don't move. I checked for unusual things on all the surfaces and they're all clean.
Any ideas?
