Default RE: 50cc Sukhette Build Thread, now in progress!!

Keep in mind that prop driven airplanes are not perfectly symmetrical. The air blast from the prop is swirling off the prop, rising on the left side and falling on the right. Then there is gyroscopic precession and the asymmetry of the prop blades' thrust as they rotate. It's not a perfect world, that's why we have trims and firewall thrust angles and the like.
