				Makes sense to me. The rudders are rigged perfectly. If I adjust them to center the ball they will be turned to the right when the yoke is centered.

				think about it for a minute, what controls the ball? it is yaw, and that is controlled by the rudder. If you adjust the ailerons, you are creating a roll issue. I would carefully measure the rudders and see if one is out of rig,

				Ball not centered - no rudder pedals was created by RP J			
			
				My ercoupe is slightly uncoordinated with the ball always on the right when straight and level. The rudders and ailerons are rigged to be centered as per service mem 35. What is the best way to remedy this? I have one AI saying the rudders can be adjusted to the right, and another AI saying the wings should be adjusted. Any thoughts on which is the better fix?
