Yes, although there may be gains there too. Electric motors can provide high torque more quickly than piston engines, and of course much more quickly than turbines. Maybe this will result in faster stall recoveries, and with new uses of motors flight envelopes might get more stable as well.
- earleybird 6y agoYou don't have to worry about torque on the ground. In the air near stall speed more torque is not necessarily your friend.
- bdamm 6y agoYou're right, I know at least one pilot that's crashed due to torque steer. Electrics should have less torque steer due to a great deal less rotating mass, so there's that.
