Torque reaction.

Post by Corvus »

The new LC boxers seem to have contra rotating clutches. Has this got rid of the traditional boxer "torque reaction" and "torque steer"?

This is nothing new anyway. Remember the cx500?

On the subject of "torque reaction", what are the similarities of our traditional boxers with a single engined prop plane, eg hurricane or a helicopter?

How do single engined jets go on in this respect, eg gloster whittle?

I think it's also a smaller diameter so may well have less of an effect.
