CH47 turning issue

Whenever I lift off with the CH47, after the last update the helicopter rises as expected but when left to fly straight it tips to the left and goes into a left spiral dive. It has been uninstalled and reinstalled a number of times with the same issue. Does anyone else have the same issue or am i doing something wrong....
This has been present in all previous versions of CH47 - the physics calculations in MSFS are not perfect for the tandem system and a minimal amount of torque/ dissymmetry of lift exists at higher collective.
This can be easily controlled by either engaging the AFCS Heading Hold, and fly the aircraft using autopilot, or using the LATERAL ROTOR TRIM to compensate and stabilise the aircraft
In general helicopters are very “hands on”, requiring constant inputs and corrections to keep stable
Thank you for your reply however until the 1.1.1 update this was not an issue
There was some modifications to the flight model, though I haven’t noticed anything nor it has been reported. If you can record a video I can look into it
@Shand359 took a look at the video - that’s definitely not normal. Never seen such nor has been reported.
Just to confirm, is your AFCS system selector OFF and MSFS assist settings “true to life”?
Will have to investigate. This is very unusual.
Just to confirm, can you take off, take the aircraft into a hover and then disconnect your hardware?
Just trying to verify the issue isn’t related to your hardware setup in any way.
OK.... I'm not sure what happened. I restarted my PC and the issue has gone. I already tried that a number of times without success. Its working now. Thanks anyway
