    @CenturiVonKikie it’s very impressive then. Great airframe on this aircraft

    @Mustang51 the only thing that's XML edited is the engine, the cockpit size, and the structural wings to allow for control surfaces, the rest is the game's default, so I assume this particular configuration is inherently stable as long as the turn rate doesn't exceed a certain angle of attack threshold, where it otherwise begins spiraling when pitch is applied (since it's all symmetric airfoils and those don't handle very well at high angles of attack)

    @CenturiVonKikie did you do any specific XML or funky trees work to make it stable like this or did it just happen to fly this well?

    I was surprised at how stable it was myself
