Now that I have an hour in my RV-7 I have a worry about the EXTREMELY sensitive ailerons. They are so sensitive that I think they are dangerous. It's like balancing a ball on the point of a needle. Just breathe on the stick and the plan "snaps" either left or right. I can steady it , with great effort, and fly straight and level and gently turn but it's way more sensitive than the RV-7 of the check pilot who is helping me. He is quite conerned about the snatchy, snappy feel of the ailerons. Conversely the elevators and rudder feel very much like my check pilot's RV-7.
One person has suggested squeezing down the trailing edges both airlerons as you would for a heavy wing saying that helped his plane which had a similar problem.
What is your opinion?
