Description:
All aircraft and helicopters in the simulator consistently roll/bank to the left during flight.
This issue affects every tested aircraft type and occurs regardless of control hardware.

To clarify, this is not related to ground movement or wheel steering. The issue concerns airborne roll/bank behavior.

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Launch the simulator

  2. Load any aircraft or helicopter

  3. Take off and establish straight and level flight

  4. Release roll input and observe aircraft behavior

Expected Result:
The aircraft should remain stable and maintain level flight when properly trimmed and without roll input.

Actual Result:
The aircraft continuously rolls/banks to the left and requires constant right input to maintain level flight.

Troubleshooting Already Attempted:

  • Adjusted and reset trim settings

  • Tested multiple yokes, joysticks, and controllers

  • Calibrated all input devices

  • Verified the issue across multiple aircraft and helicopters

Additional Notes:
The problem persists regardless of the connected control device, which suggests the issue may be simulator-related rather than hardware-related.

As the engine spins the heavy propeller to the right (clockwise from the pilot’s perspective), it forces the aircraft body to react by trying to roll to the left because a spinning propeller acts like a gyroscope causing the aircraft to yaw to the left.

Most prop aircraft are affected. Is this by design?
