Steve,

Let me add my welcome to the Lancair = community=20 and the LML.

The rudder is the heaviest control = on the LNC2,=20 and to me that is good. The pitch is super sensitive (understatement!) = and the=20 roll is pretty darn light and nice. You might have normal rudder = forces, and=20 it does sound like you have normal routing on your calbles. What would = you=20 esitimate your pedal force to be at 150 knots, or some other data = point? Is it=20 difficult to move on the ground?
