I've been told that there is enough friction in the rudder cables, that trim isn't necessary? But I think a small fixed aluminum tab on the rudder wouldn't hurt anything. I would just flox it in the trailing edge, and bend as necessary. The question is: what type and thickness of AL, and any suggestions as to required sizing. TKS D. Story, ATP
