 |
|
Bruce, I'm a 701 scratch builder and am helping build a 750. The rudder load is a little stiff at first but if you put a good grease on it during final assembly, it does loosen up a bit with use. The 701 rudder doesn't self center and take a little getting used too but after 40 hrs I don't even notice it anymore.
During the brief flight I had in the 750 it didn't need much rudder in flight. It seems to have much less adverse yaw than the 701. Of course, your milage may vary.

I'm concerned about high rudder pedal loads, due to a physical limitation. Does reducing the "vee" angle in the lower nose gear bearing help. I while back there were some postings about putting springs in the nose gear steering rods. Did that lower the rudder loads on the ground and in the air?

I think Larry at Macs Machine shop has a partial solution to this.He's on most of the Zenith sites.
