Blame David. :) The DC-3 is a taildragger, and therefore doesn't have a steerable wheel to turn with. Instead, real aircraft use differential braking to do this. The problem is, typical control setups don't have toe brakes on the rudder pedals. So I cheated in the initial configuration and mapped the outer (+/- 0.5-1.0) range of the rudder pedals to the brakes. I thought this was nifty and clever, but David (who spends a lot more time flying it and cares more about the model behavior) didn't like it. The DC-3 is his baby, after all. The lines are still in there, but commented out. Look in your dc3.xml file for the control mapping in the <gear> tags, and take out the comments. It's not really an issue with the rudder. You'll notice that the rudder works fine, once you get moving fast enough. Andy -- Andrew J.
