Curious, my apologies for my Ignorance. Under gyroscopic procession you mention the bike wheel which I get. Apply a force and it affects it 90degrees in the direction of rotation. But if the prop is spinning clockwise and the you apply back pressure the bottom of the prop at 6oclock … 90degrees is 9oclock. Why would that, give a right turning tendency instead of a left.
I think when rotating you’re adding forward pressure at 6 o’clock on the prop, which eventually shifts to 9 o’clock. if you imagine it as a disc and added forward pressure at its 9 o’clock, which way you think it will turn

Honestly, my favourite channel to learn aviation! thank you!

I don’t understand the right turning tendency in nose wheel airplanes at all…how is the force being applied at 6 o clock ?
