    @Aerovations It could use some refining, but it actually isn't too far off. I do think the SP2 tutorial plane (if there is one) would use SP2 parts and have more details than this one though.

    @Cuboidable Nah it'll be free to download (in fact I think it's against the ToS to lock it behind a paywall).

    @Solent happens to all my planes. It starts like overcorrecting more and more until it flips over or nosedives.

    @Solent I found the issue to be a feedback loop with the smooth() I used on the trim component of the altitude autopilot... not sure why I didn't catch this earlier. I have fixed this and updated the xml. Is the issue fixed for you now?

    oh my god this is amazing, there's just a bug with the autopilot;
    when you set the altitude to between 12000 and 23000, and speed to above 230 knots IAS, the plane will start wobbling up and down, on all physics settings. If the speed goes above 280 knots, the wobbling will be so strong that the horizontal stabilisers start to break off.
    This only happpens with the autopilot on though, in manual flight it has no problems with going past 340 knots.
