Why is it that every plane I take off in pulls to the left upon take off?
I keep having to hit the right rudder to keep the plane on the runway.
Wassupwiddat? :)
FlightGear's number 1 FAQ. That's what real propeller planes do (all
singles and many twins), because of the slipstream from the propeller.
You have to get onto the rudder, like you would in real life.
I should also point out that by default we have a small cross wind, and that probably is the largest component of the pulls left complaint because aircraft tend to weathervane into the wind (when the wheels are still on the ground.)
