    @Pianoman Sounds like it could be useful in other models as well. With a regular sized VTOL, my Jedi Starfighter (Plo Koon's) is just big and bulky.

    @pushthelimits
    A small VTOL engine is published at the following URL and I'm using this as well.
    I posted the URL in the previous comment about the X-WING which I fixed.
    Please download and try!

    @Pianoman I think the problem with that might be size. Whenever I use a XML modded piece, I usually get it from someone else's plane about a month earlier and can't remember where I gat it from. If you can make a smaller VTOL engine, I would be thankful, but either way, I am happy that you're helping.

    I could make it fly!
    But the pitch dosen't seem to be working well.

    (When taking off please put down the pitch slowly.)

    Set the deadweight for some parts of the nose part and shift the center of gravity in the nose direction.
    Built a small VTOL engine, thruster and wing inside the nose parts.
    Thrusters are linked to pitch.

    @DahezDefalt I think it might be the physics of the game, because it should fly.

    @Pacman126 I tried to scale it bigger too, but the same problems occurred as when it was small.

    @pushthelimits I've just tired and it seems unless you scale it bigger I can't do anything

    @Pacman126 If there is anything you can do, I'd be grateful for it.
