    @TheWhistlingDeath I fixed it! The problem was I needed a larger surface area on the rails but I forgot one thing. I put full weight on the tip so now I took the weight away. It still goes down a tiny bit but mostly fixed. Thank you for all the help. :D

    @TheWhistlingDeath I think that is the problem because I made them small.

    also try making the wings a bit less swooped and maybe try adding bigger control
    surfaces on the tail.

    @TheWhistlingDeath on one test it did when I changed the shape of the wings. Other than that, nope.

    @TheWhistlingDeath I added a thruster right at the back and it improved but still won’t pull up.

    put the engine in the tail and make sure there is enough thrust (speed) to pull up
    (the reason it is not pulling up is there is not enough thrust to do so and this plane is not built to be a glider
