The only "control" for the main wheels on any Van's RV is though braking and/or differential braking. That is accomplished through the rudder pedals. Pushing on the top of the pedals modulates the braking for the associated main wheel.
Hope that helps. |
RV nose wheels are free castering. Steering on the ground is by rudder and brakes.

during the takeoff? |
Yes, but it's probably not the best technique to use differential braking during takeoff roll. The rudder is all you need under 99% of t/o conditions.

No different to a Grumman AA5 or a Cirrus.

I like Mike Seagar, he's in Oregon near the Vans Aircraft factory. Cost is about $1200 or so and you will have a fun time learning how to fly and about RVs. |
