Plane tilting forward even on slight movement

47 pipperoni  3.0 years ago

I was building a plane with the shape of an AC-130, CoM slightly in front of CoL and just enough power to take off, but whenever a slight movement downwards occurs, the whole plane starts flipping forwards. Any help?

    Issue seemed to have been fixed by adding flaps to compensate for tilt, moving wings backwards and shifting the CoM to see what works best. I'm still not exactly sure what caused the issue of me flipping over agressively but just making the plane stable to fly without any deviations seemed to have fixed that issue too.

    Just add more weight to front. See if that works. Being rail heavy makes it very odd

    Playing with a keyboard?
    The thing is, keyboards always put the input to max amount or the minimum amount regardless of how long you press it.
    If you're not playing with keyboard, I suggest just putting the com further away from the col, but not too far
