    I love the Tomahawk. It's even replaced the WB/JPL C152 taildragger as my 'quick flight' aircraft of choice. Now, I am wondering what settings people are using for the rudder trim tab. I fly with just one pilot, and the aileron trim tab is set accordingly, but any hints and tips for the rudder will be most appreciated.

    Once again, JF - thanks for yet another great aircraft.

      Hello, having flown several planes in real life, my technique is as follows. avoided maintaining pressure on the stick lol I put my plane into cruise then I slightly let go of the controls and I see how it behaves; Then I trim until there is no pressure on the controls, especially when going up or down!

        I'm talking about setting it during the pre-flight walk round.
