    You’ve probably already solved the problem but in case you haven’t, I would say it’s a weight thing, higher wing loadings usually make for less manoeuvrability, I went through and got rid of a lot of the mass if you’d like to see; right here. Hopefully this helps lol

    The pitch is sluggish because the CoL and CoM are so far apart. Btw the CoM is behind the gear, causing it to tip backwards. I'll tag you on a build with good fuselage wings =D
