PaulL Posted August 13, 2004 Share Posted August 13, 2004 My SQ2000 has a slight roll to the right - it may be due to engine torque, did not notice so much when coasting down to the runway. Is there a common way to add roll trim to canards? ------------------------------ My website: www.abri.com/sq2000 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc Zeitlin Posted August 22, 2004 Share Posted August 22, 2004 Is there a common way to add roll trim to canards?In a COZY MKIV, there is a manual roll trim, using springs and a handle. Many people have made modifications to electric trim systems as well. See: http://www.crixbinfield.freeserve.co.uk/Mods/trimspring.htm for a view of the system. Quote Marc J.

PaulL Posted September 1, 2004 Author Share Posted September 1, 2004 It turns out the problem was the wing alignment. I added an extra washer to the right wing upper bolt. Now it tracks fine and I can simply use the auto-pilot for "roll-trim". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
