My plane goes left when using trim for some reason, what's causing it? (SOLVED)

    Issue was found to be drag, but it was still a problem even without trim, so many red drag points were the main issue.

    @O202 Sorry it's still in progress because of this issue the post addresses, just wait for a full public release (after the issue is resolved)

    @Numbers2 Honestly maybe you can fix that, am not sure where the sources came from, I'll mention you on the 707

    My suggestion is go to the XML page and set the drag scale to 0 as it might be a drag issue or it might be that the com is off center? @Zero0Two2

    It also seems to turn left when on high speed, it doesn't effect when on low/medium

    @ToeTips Nope, even on the pitch surfaces it's right and works on both sides

    It's inverted or needs to be.

    @Zero0Two2
    The trim on the left control surface is probably the reason.

    Like roll left or yaw left.

    @PaperPlaneHasDream Is it okay if I try to send you the plane itself? It would be easier to solve the problem

    if it's Ok to fly normally but tilts when using trim, check if you turn the Trim On in a control surface that control aircraft's roll
    If not, in other word, it tilts all the time, then check if the wings are symmetric. Also be aware to keep the plane balanced in weight
    And try to keep it balanced and symmetric when building

    Didnt enable trim for one side?
    Usually because the wings arent symetric, and the control surfaces arent balanced
