AH-1W swerves to the left/is lopsided

Just like the title says, the AH-1W rolls to the left while you are trying to go straight, just like the UH-1 lineup that did the same thing some time ago and got fixed.

Yes, I have also noticed this issue. The yaw problem is exceptionally obvious on the AH-1W, which seriously affects the flight!Additionally, the AH-1W has poor maneuverability, which is not like having two engines for a helicopter!

Not only that, when youre in camera view/gunner view, if you yaw from left to right, your tail will slide out and twist your heli sideways. It doesnt do this in 3rd person, so something is incredibly broken about the flight mechanics of this airframe.

I have this issue with all twin-engined helicopters, made two bug report about it but its been 8 months (made a new bug report once I found that it affects all twin-engined helicopter), only way Ive found to correct it is flying with a HOTAS and leaning the helicopter slightly to counter it, and hotas controls are still screwed up for XBOX

actually the ah-1w has a maneuverability issue specifically the ah-1z and the ah-1f its descendant and predecessor in that order lack that issue
