How straight does your Acclaim taxi

Recommended Posts

My Bravo taxied straight as an arrow as did my J Model on a windless day, my Acclaim not so much. I need fair left rudder to keep it straight. Not an issue on takeoff.

Opinions would be helpful.

I’ve tried different locations, generally to the right, most likely I’ll have to make it centered or on the left. I just recently fixed my pedals so now I’m more aware of it, prior I was having a hard time riding the brakes in the 3” pedal extensions.

With the airplane on jacks, use a couple of bar clamps to clamp a 2X4 to the co-pilots rudder pedals to even them up. then eyeball the nose wheel, if it isn't straight, adjust the link to the steering horn till it is. 

If you have rudder trim, make sure it is centered.
