True. In a full scale there are additional clues/tools that we don't have with RC (i.e. "step on the ball", "step on the good engine", etc.) As a rule however, the yaw from the good engine will quickly induce a roll action which you will instinctively counter with aileron. Once you realize the roll is from the loss of an engine, applying rudder in the same direction as aileron will produce the correct rudder input.
