If you are referring to torque as the force causing the plane to rotate counterclockwise if the prop is rotating clockwise, it is a force although I really don't know if right thrust would do anything to help compensate for it although it is so minimal, it may not be an issue. I realize my jargan is not completely right but I do understand how it works. I have also heard the forces related as torque but by my above statement you could see how that would be very confusing due to most peoples understanding of what torque is. Thats why I refer to it as P-factor although not technically correct. Right thrust help make plane go down straight down runway and track good through air to put it in an easy to understand way.


As you know, by the rigorous definition, torque is a rolling reaction, so right-thrust doesn't help with that. I was trying to be general, yet somewhat complete IAW aeronautical texts.
