want is one that is totally internal to the rudder, not like the elevator
trim that has the push rod sticking out the bottom.
Any ideas where I can find something like that?

Great idea.
But being from another country, Australia, we often use different names for
the same things.
SO, would you happen to have a photo of the window crank to save confusion.

KRnetHeads,
Joe Horton was asking me about my rudder the other day, and got me to thinking
about rudder trim on KRs. When I first started flying, I had to keep a good
bit of left rudder in, just about all the time except for landing, and a LOT in
climbout. That added to the pilot workload mor
Mark and others,
This may just be an issue with the higher HP engines as I really did not
need to use rudder at all except for take off and landing. At the time, I
had a 1915 VW. And as you already know, your results WILL vary.
