Hi Everyone,
I have seen this in many places in the forums and would like a clarification on exactly what you are referring to. My guess is that it involves the use of ailerons and elevator to do a turn without using rudder. I was playing with Clearview this afternoon and noticed that when I banked I had to use a little up elevator to maintain height while it turned. As I was using the keyboard I didn't have time to involve the rudder and turns without it seemed to flow easily enough. Is this the same in the real world? I see when people fly 3 channel they recommend putting the rudder where ailerons normally go and I assume that when they go 4 channel and everything goes in the right spot that the muscle memory doesn't cause too many problems and the ailerons initate the turns as easily as the rudder. Is this right or is it completely different?
