Q

What is Gyroscopic Precession (Effect)?

A

The relatively large propeller on the T-6 and high RPMs result in more precession effect than an aircraft with a lighter, smaller propeller turning at slower RPM. Reactions: If the nose is yawed to the left, the nose tends to pitch up
If the nose is yawed to the right, the nose tends to pitch down
