[/ QUOTE ] Did the full-flaps cause your higher Vmc, or did the blocked rudder.

If you compare Vmc with (a) take-off flaps versus (b) full-flaps, and don't change any other parameter what happen?

If you're saying Vmc speed increases with full-flaps and reaches it limit due to yaw, then I just don't believe it. I've never observed this in an airplane, and it does not make sense from a technical standpoint.

Can you explain how this would be possible?
