Default High -Alpha?

James,
Upright high alpha flight with the PBF requires some right rudder input to keep it going straight. But inverted high alpha flight with the PBF seems to require some LEFT rudder stick. I guess this is because of the P-factor effect, since the spiral slipstream from the propeller should have required right rudder for both upright and inverted flight. Is your experience similar?
