I'm trying to create an airplane and everytime I go to lift off it keeps going down!

    @SpaceJunkee008 COM is "center of mass" and COL "center of lift". If you press your spacebar in the designer (or activate with the menu of it if you are on mobile), this will make three "balls" show up, a red one (COM), a blue one (COL) and a yellow one (COT, center of thrust). So now that you know all this, the only thing you have to know to make literally everything fly in Simpleplanes, is that your COM must ALWAYS be in front of the COL

    @SpaceJunkee008 no since it is the "center" of the lift that the plane create, and a plane does create lift with its wings,but also thanks to the vertical stabilisators. And since the vertical stabs are oftenly smaller, the center of lift is oftenly between the wings and the vertical stabs, but closer to the wings.
