How do single engine airplanes handle changes in torque?
Single engine airplanes experience torque proportional to the amount of engine power used. Pilots mitigate this torque by applying engine power smoothly and gradually. Since the torque on most planes will be applied to the airframe in the counter-clockwise direction from the point of view of the pilot, the pilot further mitigates this torque by applying Some right rudder when applying engine power. Aircraft manufacturers mitigate torque by offsetting engine placement and control surface neutral positions slightly. Quick applications or reductions in engine power will still cause the torque to be noticeable enough to create a left turning tendency.
