CONCEPT Jet Assisted Pitch

2,107 CoBros2  5.6 years ago

This is an idea that I have been thinking about for over a year, I just never came to it and I did try once and uploaded but it wasn't that succesful. So I tried again after I gained some know how of building planes. This is an idea that planes can pitch up and down using only the engine, it could also use it to assist the controls instead only using engines. I will work more into it because this isn't great, it can fly but it's pitch is slow and unstable without gyro.
Controls
All standard flight controls including pitch
Ag8 for Gyro use it to maintain flight when starting in mid air then turn off if you want, it only helps stability it doesn't control anything.

    it's unstable because you have no horizontal stabilizer. try adding one on the fuselage and remove the control surfaces. https://www.simpleplanes.com/a/re0mBn/WORKING-CONCEPT-Jet-Assisted-Pitch
