    These are all simulated using funky trees on my AN-2.
    In fact, these are also simulated on my Kea when you switch one engine off, my PA-18, and my Cessna 180/182. But I guess they have a lot more parts, and less people downloaded them and could run them lol

    @Hedero 1.2 Years late lol. But the Bf-109's would go to the left because of how light their airframes were compared to how strong the engine was (at least G to K variants)

    Yeah, in fact, with the p-51 mustang, pilots would have to gradually increase the throttle, not just kick it, because the torque on the mustang was so great that the aircraft would basically just spin around or it would damage the engine or whatever.@asteroidbook345

    @asteroidbook345 I think P factor stays the same, but more props increases torque, spiral airflow effect and gyroscopic effect, but the planes are usually proportionally larger so it stays the same

    I'm wondering if this would be aggravated by more props and that makes me thing how annoying it must have been to take off in World War II bombers with all 4 props rotating in the same direction

    I'm sure sometimes those P-factor in your build get unnoticed because it is so gentle (I haven't notice it in your AN-2 at all) and a simple kick to a rudder will fixed it no problem.
