HI :D
I have the same problem at various airports when I start the simulator for the first time.
My solution is to open  throttle and if veers to the right
I exit then do my flight plans as it never happens the second time in entering a flight , very frustrating if you go through all the procedures for flight and take off and the plane is out of control.
Hope this helps
