Their props go round "widdershins" (why ?), anti-clockwise as seen from the cockpit, so it tends to swing right when you open up:
The Hawker Tempest was the same which would catch a few Spitfire pilots out. I remember from Pierre Closterman's book 'The Big Show' that on his conversion--sit in the cockpit; find out where all the knobs and tits are then fire it up and fly it--he took off, flew off to one side on the runway and over the remains of a hangar that had been demolished to prevent even more Tempests flying in to it.
