Which statement correctly pairs the rudder pedals rotation with the tiller wheel rotation?

• A. Rudder 8 degrees; Tiller 80 degrees
• B. Rudder 6 degrees; Tiller 60 degrees
• C. Rudder 8 degrees; Tiller 60 degrees
• D. Rudder 10 degrees; Tiller 80 degrees

Answer: (A)

Rudder pedals produce a small yaw input, while the tiller wheel provides a much larger steering deflection for the nose wheel. This setup lets you make precise, small adjustments in flight with the pedals and then execute larger, easier turns on the ground with the tiller. So the correct pairing reflects a small rudder pedal movement paired with a large tiller wheel movement. The other options would imply the same or reversed magnitudes, which doesn’t match how yaw control and ground steering work together.
