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
Thank you for your thoughtful question, we appreciate you watching our Epic Flight Academy videos on TH-cam. In order for you to get the most complete answer for your question, please review the video with your flight and or ground instructor wherever you are learning to fly, and consult with them.

think of it as a wheel. Before take-off, you are stationary on the runway. After increasing the throttle, you are turning the longitudinal axis of the plane parallel to the runway. Thus, you are rotating your propeller rotation plane a bit say it 20 degrees. That`s what makes your right-turning tendency
Honestly, my favourite channel to learn aviation! thank you!
This is the most logical explanation of gyroscopic precession I've seen in any of the training videos I've seen, to include $$$ courses.

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