Glen, Having flown only with rudder pedals all my life, I was very skeptical when I purchased a bird without such. After now putting 50 some odd hours on the Coupe, I have to ask: Who wants them? I can see only one possible reason for keeping the pedals, and that's for cross control on landings. But, having some little experience with, and hearing all the posts, I'm convinced that the pedals add little to the Coupe's ability to land cross wind. Take them out, throw them away. Who needs the extra weight.

Sounds like maybe it will spin after all. Am I the only > one who hates the pedals? I hate the vibes and also the pitiful brake > pedal. I am thinking of removing them.
