Regardless of the other factors, net lag makes friendly collissions very difficult to avoid in many circumstances.  What is a fingertip formation on my FE can be a collission on yours.  Not really workable IMHO.

Yes, torque, slipstream, and gyroscopic precession are all modeled.

Do you know why it is done this way and why it can't go both ways?

Hey Pyro,

Not pushing the issue here, but I'm interested why collision model is modeled this way. Can anyone explain to me?
