Systems and methods include providing an aircraft with a fuselage, a tail boom or empennage extending from the fuselage, a main rotor, a tail rotor, and at least one counter torque device. The counter torque device provides counter torque to the fuselage to prevent rotation of fuselage when the main rotor is operated, particularly in right sideward flight (RSF) for conventional helicopters with a counter-clockwise rotating (when viewed from above the helicopter) main rotor.
