I started a project yesterday, but i got stuck. The point was to make a plane attached to a micro glider, detach the plane high in the sky and glide down with the small plane. I uploaded it. Please help!

    @Bando89 huh, that's weird, it worked when I tested it. So long as you got it sorted, though, that's what counts!

    @Skua it spins out and starts to fall backward into the ocean
    But thank you for the work! I try to fix it.

    I think you mean a glider attached to a plane, not vise versa.
    try make as much lift from the wings as possible through size and dihedrals. if not put a small propeller on it maybe? it can also help if you add that glider by itslef to sub assembelies and try it as its own plane first instead of having it attached to the plane so you can have a more accurate reading of Com/CoL and drag.

    i recently made a smiliar plane except mine is more of a space shuttle than a glider. take any ideas from it if you want.
