Mikioyan Gurevich Mig-17

This is my second attempt at a mig-17, which was the first aircraft I uploaded years ago. I think this one is smoother and proportionately more accurate but I had trouble with the landing gear and auto roll.

    @BogdanX I want to learn to make custom control surfaces and maybe I will implement them in my next build. Do you mean to scale the real wing size down a bunch? The wheel idea helps thank you I didnt think about that. I really dont understand how the wings can cause auto roll as I nudged the real wings into the exact smae position on either side of the aircraft. and I scaled the mass and drag to 0 for the fuselage wings. Can you explain the smooth feature to me? I haven't built a plane in a long time so things have changed.

    I spent at least 3 hours trying to fix the yaw right on takeoff and the roll left while flying but couldnt get to the bottom of it. If anyone can help me I'd appreciate it
