Hi well put it this way on a recurrent test I have gone around in the flare with full flap and gear down at fairly light weight.
In such a situation and low speed there is a fair amount of yaw but that diminishes as the aircraft is cleaned up and speed builds.
At around 140 kts the aircraft is perfectly manageable in the climb.
In level flight with the aircraft clean there is little yaw.
A climb rate of 900 fpm is not difficult on one engine as long as temps and weight are ok.
That is why I say there has to be some other factor involved human or mechanical.
The citation 500 is not a seneca or light twin in that respect struggling to get a couple of hundred feet for minute.
