Outside and waiting fo a pilot to taxi test... Breaks will hold the plane to 1700rpm. Tracking was off - had to hold right rudder pedal to go straight.

On most CH750 you will need to apply rudder pressure (right if Rotax 912S with gear box) depending on engine prop rotation with the application of full take-off power. CH750 tends to veer left until airspeed makes rudder effective. This is normal. Called "P-factor" if I remember correctly. Apply 1/3 to 1/2 right rudder pressure and remove it to nuetral as CH750 airspeed increases to make rudder effective.
