    Dual rudder on mono?

    I have a Toysport Triton that I'm contemplating a dual rudder setup to help with prop walk and better turning.

    It also seems like it would remove the need for turn fins.

    Just wondering if it's worth the extra $

      Did you try propping down a little to get rid of the walk? Dual rudders = dual drag.

          To what prop? I'm running an X642. I have a Prather X225 on the way. It has a Neu 1515 1.5Y running 6S.

          I've read that you can eliminate turn fins also with dual rudders which cause drag, so maybe a wash?
