Something called Gyro drift or P-factor. This is the effect of the engine spinning in one direction causing the plane to go another. I am a student pilot and whenever I take off in a 172 or 182 I always have to use a little right rudder to stay center lined. Otherwise go to your aircraft setting and disable gyro drift.
