Well short story... Yes , even in larger turbo props or twin piston props u need to trim all three main control surface in order to fly hands off. The torque reaction does however cause bank changes in climb or descent a bit so, u need to trim the aileron too n if some 1 disagrees then I won't quarrel over it but, this is applied practically flying aircraft on 300- 500 nm sectors without autopilot n that even kinda handsoff trim.
FLYING IS A SCIENCE N TRIMMING IS AN ART.
