March 21, 20224 yr There are a number of old topics on this in the A2A forums and some of them link to this really informative video here. The dive to the left is a real thing that happens. It is also acknowledged in the A2A forums that there seems variance in how planes fly because in the forums other people said they don't experience this IRL either. https://www.a2asimulations.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=63649 https://www.a2asimulations.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=39612 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gzxt2SzOsAY I really wanted to figure out the A2A C172. I have worked out that I have an enjoyable experience if: On takeoff roll I apply some slight right rudder Off the ground apply more right rudder (as suggested in the video) I have also noticed that the optimal elevator trim for me is at the bottom of the E in TAKEOFF. I fly with only a 170 lb pilot and no baggage. Knowing these few tips has made my use of the A2A C172 much more enjoyable. Edited March 21, 20224 yr by level7 typos and rewording
March 21, 20224 yr Author I have not solved the problem yet, and my left roll during take off is much stronger than in real life both for A2A C172 and C 182.

March 22, 20224 yr Author I have never experienced a left roll like the one shown in the video either, but the roll I have in the sim is much more powerful. In the sim it is difficult not to roll over and crash. In real life we always apply right rudder during take off, but only during crosswind conditions the aircraft can yaw away from the centerline.
