I'm a newbie too. The problem I'm having learning torque rolls is the plane never seems to start one. When it finally does I'm so shocked that its usually over before I feel like I'm a part of it. I've tried giving full left aileron while hovering wilth no effect. Sometimes it starts a torque roll, then quickly rolls back the wrong direction. My trainer is the flat Goldberg Extra arf.
You have to tilt the plane slightly on it's back for it to roll. Just keep at it, you'll get the hang of it. I don't even have to touch my ailerons to get it to start rolling. Try not to over control, just a touch of correction is needed once you are rolling.
