It's almost definitely a YASim problem and is especially troublesome for
helicopters. I did a fair amount of tweaking of friction, etc on the S58 FDM
and could only get slight improvements. I'm quite disappointed that I could
not stop it from rotating on the ground during rotor spinup. This poor
ground interaction seriously detracts from the realism for helos. I wouldn't
waste much time trying to fix this in the R22 FDM... I think we need to dig
into YASim instead.
