correct as is Rudder movement without rudder input

[VPS_Choki]

So after some testing i found this issue that the rudder moves with aileron movement even when rudder is not used i checked double bindings etc and even checkked without anything plugged only keyboard. is this on purpose?

maybe you have the SAS activated:

 

"The stability augmenter system (SAS) automatically
positions the horizontal tail and rudder
to damp out pitch and yaw oscillations and
also provides manual rudder trim. With yaw
damper off, rudder trim is inoperative and returns
to neutral."

Looks like the Rudder Assist cheat got enabled somehow. This is not how Yaw SAS works.

Rudder assist is for tail dragger aircrafts, the F-5E does not have that option.

Good point. Weird behaviour then. Is there another arcade setting? Simulation/game?

Wonder why you affirm that, the manual of the real aircraft says:

 

"The CADC senses airspeed and determines the amount of control surface movement required. The aircraft can be safely flown without SAS aug-rnentation throughout the entire flight enve-lope. However, augmentation improves handling characteristics and may be desirable for particular missions."

 

so it seems plausible that when rolling the aircraft the SAS would operate the rudder to avoid sideslips.

Just checked it on my end. I was wrong. This IS how F-5E SAS works, at least in the sim The main purpose of simple implementations of such systems is to quickly dampen yaw oscillations. Apparently does that plus has an anticipateur implemented.

BTW, here's how it looks when it's trully needed but turned off (both channels)
