Well like in old days of large war birds that were conventional gear and high power engines, advance the thrust lever slowly. Let the aircraft pick up speed before trying to go to full power. If the aircraft wants to yaw off the runway you and you have full right rudder in it, then you're not go

Does any one know what % of total thrust the Pfactor should be? I know know but approximately :-) Thanks Wayne

So I'm not sure what you are asking. P-Factor is an aerodynamic effect that causes propellor-driven planes to yaw when they are flown at high power and low speed (takeoff and climbout, for example.) At low speeds, the plane flies at a substantial angle of attack, and so the airflow is not pa
