That means you built the fuse crooked. The right direction:) Roger > > I have zero engine offset and no rudder trim tab and it flies straight

I fretted over this, but set it up for straight ahead, just in case I changed to an O-200 later. I small trim tab on the rudder compensated for it, and I was happy with that. You'll need the trim tab anyway...but it might have more of an angle in it, which still isn't much. I wouldn't worry about it... Mark Langford ML at N56ML.com http://www.n56ml.com ? ?-- I mulled over the same question for my O-200 and came up with exactly the same answer. The engine is mounted straight and I have a very small amount of trim set in the tab on the rudder. Just the opposite direction from Mark's Corvair. -Jeff Scott

hi guys, What is the experience from the people who are flying with 110 hp Or more? Should I do 3 degrees offset or is there no reason to do this? Thanks Stef
KR> Engine offset advice sought
How do you measure and set engine offset please? The KR2 that I recently bought from Canada has a clockwise rotating propeller (viewed from the cockpit) driven by a Subaru EA81 via a Redrive. The rudder trim tab indicates that right rudder is needed to trim the a/c and the rh brake linings were considerably more worn than the left. These facts seem to indicate that I am likely to need a fair bit of right rudder work on my first flight in a few weeks time and I wondered if it was easy to measure and perhaps adjust the offset a little?
