an option to stop the prop counter-torque

[lulu]

Why not?

We have stall limiter.
We could have also an option to off the counter-torque in mono-engine planes.

I find that if I lean the opposite way that counteracts about 1/2 the torque.  of course you need trakir for this to work properly.

Wut?

Are you asking for something to eliminate the torque or are you looking for a setting to allow the torque?

[Ack-Ack]

he wants to have an option like the stall limiter to disable engine torque.

ack-ack

The stall limiter does not disable stalls, it simply stops you from pulling the stick as much. Hence the plane will fly exactly as if a person does not use the stall limiter.

What you are asking for is very different in that it would modify the flight model , and hence how the plane flys and performs.

No idea how that could be balanced.  The stall limiter is balanced by not being able to get the most out of your airplane.  Would the torque limiter do the same?  Would having both enabled reduce your maneuverability more than just having one enabled?

No, I think this is a bad idea.

Tell you what, we will just have the manufactories "off-set" the vertical stab enough to counter torque and "P" factor and that will fix your problem! Of course, you won't be able to fly as fast, or manuver as well in ACM, but what the heck, we need to get rid of that nagging tendencty to turn left in American aircraft, right? You need to review what the stall limiter is in the game for and the effects, both on and off! Oh, and by the way, now as you slow down to land or manuver, your aircraft is now going to turn right instead of left. Can't win either way can we?

No, learn some throttle control.

and turn your stall limiter off!

[Tank-Ace]

I'll be honest, I flew the K4 a lot, often with the throttle wide open and I didn't have any problems handling the torque.

Only one I ever had the slightest problem with was the Typhy on takeoff and landing.

[waystin2]

Um, they have this feature.  You just pick a plane without nasty torque characteristics.

Torque rotation causes joystick consuption. An option to disable it would not be bad I tought.

Using combat trim will tend to negate most of your problem until you might get too slow for it to be effective. By then no magic button is likely to save you. Sayin.

If your problem is taking off--use auto takeoff. Again-problem solved.

These planes had props that had weight and were spinning around. That means they had torque effect. it was part of flying these planes. The only one in our set that doesn't is the P-38 and that's because the props turn in opposite directions cancelling out the torque effect. Of course this all goes out the window when you lose and engine. Which happens to me at least--a lot. Just gotta deal with it. Use trim. Use rudder. Do what ya gotta do.

Hmmm stay away from the ensign eliminator then

Joysticks wear out because of poor design not because torque is integral to the flight model.

What do You mean exactly with that?
