No dragging is experienced without engine power. Additional trimtabs have been mounted on rudder and left aileron respectively. In flight the aileron trimtab is fully deflected to stop it from rolling to the left. Still it needs a lot of pressure on stick and rudder to keep it straight and level. I have made a small adjustment on port aileron and it has had somewhat little effect, and I'm thinking of adjusting the flaps to counter for the problem. I am aware that the aircraft is suppose to yaw to the left with increasing power but the yawing is experienced as extreme and unnatural in this case. If anyone with similar experiences have any answers or comments on the matter, please feel free to contact me. Best regards Per H.
