I am new to v1.0 and finding this problem infuriating. I am still building basic rockets in career mode but find that very quickly after taking off the vessel begins to spin laterally, like a bullet (in an anti-clockwise direction). On the next stage, the spinning rapidly increase as the weight of the vessel decreases. I am constantly having the compensate by rolling clockwise, irrespective of whether SAS is on. I have taken great pains to ensure the ship is built symmetrically and can't understand why this is happening. I even went back to the tutorial and found the default vessel used starts to spin anti-clockwise as well. Surely the game can't be designed to work like this?
