Default RE: Helldiver behavior

An airplane that yaws but doesn't roll, might not roll because there is actually a rudder couple. Even if the rudder/fin hasn't got enough tail volume to keep the airplane straight doesn't mean the rudder/fin won't have enough force to generate a couple. The wing might want to generate a roll when yawed, but the rudder/fin couple could cancel it out.
