Had some torque roll on launch with my rear mounted Hawk today 😭😭😂🔥💥
I expected some but not full roll and ditch into ground 🔥 didn’t feel much when I was adjusting throttle
Throttle was only 1/4-1/3 which was around same as I usually launch planes albeit pullers and mid mount engines (my 1st rear mounted)
I feel how much the plane is pulling , adjust throttle so when I let go there is pull in the plane ( I don’t do full throttle launches - those guys are crazy)
Looking for tips , tricks and advice on hand launching rear mounted prop while you are flying solo 😂😂😂 not the easiest
My understanding is that if the plane is launched around the same speed as the throttle speed is set at , once you have air flowing over the wings, torque roll is cancelled out to an extent ?
Help I want to fly my Hawk not dig the ground with her
