When beginning to take off, my airplanes wants to turn sharply in only one direction. On the virtual cockpit screen the yoke is turned all the way and I can only hold it straight with some difficulty

You need to go into, settings/control axis, choose your controller for rudder and calibrate. Also add a little ( null zone ) too your rudder axis by moving the slider a little from extreme left to right.

It may also be that your autopilot is on right from the start, and (wrongly) configured to go some direction - which it attempts to do as soon as your landing gear leaves the ground.
I had this once or twice.

Which aircraft are you talking about? The Piper Cub maybe?
