Does anyone else's 9 require a lot of pedal pressure to get the rudder to respond significantly?
Mine wags easily on the ground, clearance looks good between the rudder and VS, and I don't see any problems. But, on takeoff roll and in the air it seems like it takes quite a bit of pressure on the pedals.
Looking at the geometry of the rudder, control horn, and cables, the behavior would seem to make sense.
Any thoughts? Is this normal?
