Constant Torque On Take-off (CTOT) assists a pilot in setting take-off power by electronically adjusting fuel to maintain a pre-selected torque.
If the speed and direction of rotational motion is unchanging, engine torque will have no noticeable effects.
Torque Meter
A device used when winding the rubber motor of a free-flight aircraft that measures the torque stored in the motor and thus enables the maximum energy to be stored in it.
Torque Roll ...
Torque
This gauge is mounted just to the right of the Engine Oil gauge and indicates the torque output of the engine.
Torque
On the ground the landing gear prevents your airplane's fuselage from turning but it does cause the left tire to exert more ground pressure than the right. This causes a left-turning tendency.
Torque - A twisting, gyroscopic force acting in opposition to an axis of rotation, such as with a turning propeller.
Torque The force which tends to cause rotation.
TR Abbreviation for Torque Roll, a 3D manuever which begins as a hover and the torque of the engine/propeller rotates the model in a counterclockwise direction without any aileron (roll) inputs.
Torque: The moment of the aerodynamic forces about the thrust line of a propeller which tends to turn the aeroplane in the opposite direction to that in which the propeller is rotating.
Torque effect is the aircraft's tendency to rotate in the opposite direction to the main rotor due to Newton's third law "Every action has an equal and opposite reaction".
TORQUE
The force which tends to cause rotation.
TOTAL PRESSURE
A measure of barometric pressure in the moving air; Synonyms: dynamic pressure, Pitot pressure, stagnation pressure; Compare: static pressure; Symbols...
Forces, Torques, and Motion As an object moves through space it translates and rotates. The translations are in direct response to forces on the object. The rotations are in response to torques on the object.
-Due to torque of the motor, the airplane tends to rotate in the opposite direction to the propeller.
Torque
In accordance with Newton's law of action and reaction, the helicopter fuselage tends to rotate in the direction opposite to the rotor blades. This effect is called torque.
It bears the weight of the engine and absorbs torque
It provides lateral support to prevent oscillations in the vertical axis.
It maintains parallelism between the engine and prop shaft.
When an engine is running at constant speed, the torque (power) exerted by the engine at the propeller shaft must equal the opposing load provided by the resistance of the air. The r.p.m.
Use a torque wrench whenever possible and determine torque values based on the size of bolt.
Be sure bolt and nut threads are clean and dry.
Use smooth, even pulls when tightening.
Tighten the nut first - whenever possible.
Once again, torque and "P" factor have entered into the flight. To offset their effects, apply slight but constant steady pressure to the right rudder for the duration of the climb.

Wait about two seconds for the engine/propeller to stabilize RPM and then release the brakes, be prepared for the left turning effects (slipstream and torque). Rotate at the correct airspeed and climb out at VX.
'We use max torque most of the time,' Reeves comments. 'Because our stage lengths typically aren't that long-usually 350 nm or less-it's uncommon for us to fly legs longer than two hours, so clients rarely complain.
Strain gauging the elevator torque and transmitting the output to the cookpit enables a direct measurement of the elevator hinge moment in flight.
In 1931 Soviet aeronautical engineers Boris Yuriev and Alexei Cheremukhin began experiments with the TsAGI 1-EA helicopter. A single rotor helicopter, with dual forward and aft anti-torque propellers, ...
CR or C/R - counter rotating. Usually in general aviation referring to twin engined aircraft with 'handed' engines whose propellers turn in opposite directions to eliminate propeller torque effect.
Despite this it was not until 1942 that helicopters reached full scale production with 131 of Igor Sikorsky's first helicopter being produced. His design was the first design to utilize a configuration of both a single main rotor with an antitorque ...
is said to be in an equilibrium when the sum of all the forces equals zero . The model that interests us most is an object which has a single pivotal point. The turning effect of an applied force about a pivotal point is defined as moment ( torque).
Turning the rudder trim knob changes the tension on a spring connected to the rudder pedal torque tubes. In other words, the trim knob changes the relative positions of the rudder pedals instead of adjusting a tab on the rudder itself.
Snap roll: Abrupt manouever aided by the engine torque/prop rotation; possible to "snap" out of control.
