Plane turns automatically on the runway while takeoff.
When the nose landing gear is removed , moves straight with no issues. Tried changing the gears , checked turn and motor input. Everything is fine.
Still it turns while on takeoff. Flys good and straight after takeoff and goes straight after landing as well.

    This might be nose landing gear alignment, try to see if it’s center or not

    @SC0693 what about front to rear weight?
    Cantilevered weight over the front wheel can make take off sloppy

    I’ve had an issue with this using reverse tricycle gear (think bush planes, because that’s what it was). I have no clue what the issue was but I just put on a regular front gear and it worked ok. Make sure the front gear is infront of the COM, I think that’s what causes it but not sure

    @ChinmayShukla they're identical , also as I mentioned , this happens only on takeoff. During flight and on landing its fine

    If your plane has 2 or more engines , check if all produce same thrust. Your craft might lean towards the side which produces less thrust

    Could be weight related.
    Check to see if its heavier on one side more than the other.
