Hartmut was exactly correct about first starting at the nose wheel to fix rigging problems. Over the years people have really screwed up Coupe control systems. Probably because they did not understand the coordinated system. Once you have the nose wheel tracking straight then check if your control wheels are 'level'. Then check the control coordinator behind the seat. It MUST be trammed (squared) like the manual shows. You can then work your way out to the aileron push rods. This is a good time to check the push rods for water. I found one of my rods was about half full of water! Don't ask me how the water gets in there. People have found these rods to be severely corroded so I guess this is rather common. Don't forget to align the rudders per manual. Remember that adjusting the eilerons alone will screw up the rudder alignment. When everything is correct the Coupe will fly hands off with the ball centered.
