@Iliketobreakthegame just did!
@Mustang51 I made a better one! Check it out!
@Iliketobreakthegame no worries! If your planes ever do that on takeoff, just move the CoM forward by either removing the weight from the back or adding it to the front. It’s always good to check your CoM every now and then while you’re building
@Mustang51 Thanks a lot! I really needed help.
Nice! This is on its way to becoming something cool! To make this fly is very simple: you just need to make sure the CoM is ahead of the CoL. To do this, remove the fuel from the rear part of the plane until the CoM (red) is a decent amount ahead of the CoL. Also I would recommend losing some of the planes weight, lengthening the landing gear, and making the props a tiny bit shorter. This will help with manoeuvrability and landing without damaging the engine. I hope this helps and I can’t wait to see the finished plane!
