Default Coordinated turns without rudder, and autopilots

OK- one more time: I fly a real Baron with an autopilot, and I can
categorically tell you that the autopilot does not command a coordinated
turn. However, the plane itself does not have a lot of adverse yaw, and even
at a standard rate turn it only goes around half a ball into the turn on the
TC. It is not noticeable by any seat of the pants criteria.

This is the way a real Baron flies, and I have been in more than a few.

If you believe that your game is more accurate than a real plane with a real
pilot, you are more delusional than you appear. Your game lacks an accurate
representation of the actual behavior of a real plane, as it also does for
the Extra, where it is especially weak.

Unless you've flown a real Baron (or Extra) as well as played MSFS, you have
no basis of comparison.
