PW-5 PW-6 'stiff' rudder pedals by
son_of_flubber
Coming from SGS and Blanik glider experience, the rudder pedals in a PW-6 seem "stiff" to me.
1.Are the rudder pedals in a PW-5 likewise stiff?
2.Is the stiffness a design shortcoming or a feature? Does the stiffness have any purpose? Do some people prefer this feel?

cockpit for a nav aid than the 11" version. (There may also be a touch-
