    The opponent survived for 5:43.22 and you have survived for 2:14.47 That means that you're 2nd

    Hey!
    It's me about the challenge.
    So another plane has got the same amount of points as you, because they got the creativity bonus. There will be a 2nd dogfight, the same as the standard one, but now the plane that stays the longest in the air gets 1 point more and wins
    Good luck

    It pitches down because there is most likely to much weight in the front, the landing gear bounce is most likely because the suspension strength is either to much or to little, and that damper may not be the best, experiment with that. If you want to improve lift so the landing speed is low is to nudge more wing peices into the primary wings and make them flat bottom for the most lift, just to help! Hope my entry can beat yours!

    It's the most detailed plane I've seen until now. Your plane flies very nice and realistically. Don't worry about the nose-down tendency, you can simply put the H. stabilisers on rotators that have input>Trim
