      Would the Force Vector be +1 or -1 in this case with the X-Axis Arrow pointing to the right of the screen? Thanks!

      Also, for the Lift Force Vector, am I correct in saying it would be +1 on the Y-Axis? Thanks.

      It's just a vector, so if you set -1 and the force is negative it'll be in the other direction. Up/down/sideways are just concepts based on orientation; if I roll your mesh 90 degrees is up still y? What if I rotate it?
