    @FireNut58 And if you bind yaw to your own realizations rather than control surfaces of wings, magic could happen.

    @FireNut58 So far as I know it's quite helpful on landing sequence. When you want to turn the plane a little bit as the the wheels were already touched the track but wheel steering is not on active speed yet, use yaw to make it.
    It also helps on taking-off sometimes. When your plane is very light but equip a very strong prop engine. The plane may not follow the track and the nose deviates. You can use yaw to keep it running straight.
