Auto Credit Based on SPMTB's The SPMTB Starfighter

So, since apparently my version 1 was well liked (I'm counting 133 downloads within 2 days), I added some upgrades!

Just to recap, this is what I plan to be my main jet, everyone has a jet that they will use for exploring or fighting, and this is mine!

This is version 2, and has some pretty sweet upgrades and fixes!

First, lets look at weapons.
The number of missiles doubled, from 6 to 12, and were given legit names.

There are now 2 more PFAC's (Proximity Fire Auto Cannon), which replaced the guns on the wing tips.

Bombs, missiles, and original PFAC's were relocated.

Next, lets talk about some more drastic changes I made.
I made a custom landing gear (I'm not the best with that kind of stuff, so constructive criticism would help a lot!).

New safety features! Not to mention decreased sinking speed, slightly reshaped wings, and fixed VTOL, but a brand new ejection seat! so you can jettison to safety.

New activation groups have been added, along with an easier layout.

A radar system (not actually working), that spins.

Multiple other small changes.

With these new features, there has been a...slight issue that you may notice.
The plane tends to roll slightly in flight, and since I've tried everything I know and all have failed, I kind of don't know why or how its doing it. If you know about this kind of stuff, it would be awesome if you could help out!

anyways, if I can fix this...issue, then a final version 3 will come out and I can finally move on to other stuff!
