No torque effect?
-
I really enjoy flying the Commander, but it seems there is no effect from the propellor torque. When I takeoff in no wind conditions with full throttle, I don't need any rudder to keep the aircraft straight. I would expect a pull to the left, without rudder. Anyone else with the same problem?

@Downwind I now adjust this for each of my aircraft individually, and find that significant right rudder is required after takeoff, and torque effects from power changes (as opposed to combined torque, P-factor, and slipstream effects) is very noticeable with abrupt power changes.
