Default Downthrust On A Twin

Not exactly. Think of it this way: Loose an engine, loose half of your down thrust. The plane that was trimmed to fly with both engines running will now start to climb. If you try to counter it by adding more down thrust, then you you will still loose half of your down thrust when you loose an engine.
