I suspect by now the original message has long been forgotten, nobody cares and I've lost interest....
Perhaps a one of a kind aircraft has some characteristics that are also one of a kind and its reasonable to expect they are at least unknown by me? Its also largely academic to the entire forum what you experience, and how, if it performs differently to all others.
trim tab works at one speed at a given power setting so no idea how you set yours but in Autogyro and Magni aircraft you get quite large yaw changes with power changes. Removing power (as perhaps you might accept during final.....) gives a right yaw that requires left pedal to maintain balance, but I'm telling you what you already know so its pointless explaining because... half of what is being written is nonsense because you are creating an argument nobody made with you so....
Nobody argued with that. you just got all stressed and started trying to make a point out of the fact I mentioned relaxing the left pedal due to the power changes etc etc blah blah..
In your aircraft or a Magni/AG? having removed power on final? If your one off aircraft then its totally academic isn't it?
Honestly that surprises me if touchdown is at a "normal" speed material to this thread, and this is where it becomes tiring tiring to cover everything for you so that it doesn't generate 1000 ripostes. Sometimes you claim you touch down with almost zero ground roll and very low airspeed when its to grumble about...well me for example. but then the internet is a wonderful thing. and every now and then you see pictures which are worth more than words.. like this example of a landing from a guy called Vance. Around 6m50sec in for a lovely landing. sincerely meant btw.
Just so you can be clear that is the kind of "normal" landing which I'm surprised needs full pedal input at touch down. Which by the way if you did need full pedal and it were to be material to this thread then you would be inaccurately aligned and either you put too much pedal in or ran out of rudder authority. We can all make a mistake with the pedal but I'm sure nobody I know has run out of rudder authority in a crosswind - but then we tend to fly stock mass built aircraft not one offs. Out.
My primary trainer is The Predator, a one of a kind near centerline thrust two place tandem powered by a Lycoming IO-320.

When I fly any gyroplane with a properly adjusted trim tab at a typical approach speed with no throttle changes I don’t need any rudder pedal pressure to maintain coordinated flight.

If I have a cross wind component from the left I use right pedal pressure to bring the nose right to align with the runway.

I have no reason to release left pedal pressure because I don’t have left pedal pressure in to fly coordinated (yaw string or flag straight back).

If I have a strong enough cross wind component from the left I may get full right pedal in before touch down.
