Do you have any tips for doing these? I tried increase dead weight in the front, change the wings aspect and nothing.
I need these for my next build, but i cant make it fly so help!
If you a sneak peak just say...
Tips for placing CoM ahead of CoL

@LeoBrasi what to do is remove the cockpit, save the whole rest of it as a subassembly, start a new build, and add the subassembly to that cockpit. That will get around the successor system, and you can upload it unlisted for the contest
@Skua nop, theres still the fuselage part you made for me. I dont know why...
@Skua Nop, theres still the fuselage, i dont know why...
@LeoBrasi those shouldn't have mattered, but they're gone now just in case. Have you been able to enter?
@Skua but you forgot about two of them the stabilizer version and the canardversion
@Skua already did it
@LeoBrasi done. Just make sure you credit me in the description or something
@Skua Can you delete your unlisted posts? Because i want this to enter the Oceanview Speedway Tournament and it cant because its based on one of youre unlisted planes.
@Skua Could you delete your unlisted versions? I want this to go in the tournament but i cant because its based on your unlisted version
@LeoBrasi sweet, glad you like it
@Skua that thing is almost perfect! Thx! I am just running a few tests in the daredevil and try to use a modded engine, and maybe an armed version, but it will be up tomorrow!
@LeoBrasi here you go. I also messed with the colours but obviously you can change those to whatever you want haha. Try to understand all the changes I made, they're pretty useful in most planes
@Skua Link
@Skua Ok ill upload the unlisted version next
@LeoBrasi either attach engines to a rotator, or use a VTOL engine. Probably best not to do it on this one, though, make sure you learn about regular control first haha
@Skua btw how do u make thrust vctoring? What is it actually, i dont know much about it.
@LeoBrasi that's alright, either can work just fine. Do the best you can, and then upload another unlisted version. I'll make some final tweaks and explain what I changed for you.
@Skua maybe not... But ill try that. By the way i used the non canard version
@LeoBrasi yeah. You can move the CoL and CoM closer together (should be easy, just start removing fuel from the front); you can increase the size of the wings; you can increase the size of the pitch surfaces (as long as it doesn't start getting unsteady); you could even add something like thrust vectoring if you want. Just to make sure, have you removed the pitch surfaces from the main wings?
@Skua but i think it pitches to slow, any tips for that.
@LeoBrasi yeah!
@Skua Thank you! Do you want me to tag you with the final product?
@LeoBrasi I only moved the CoM and CoL, I left the rest for you to try. To get the first one to take off, remove the pitch surfaces from the main wings and invert the ones on the canards, that should do it. To stop them spinning out once they're in the air, they need vertical stabilisers, so add one or two of those and you should be good to go.
@Skua i have one problem, none of your plsnes seem. The first on doesnt take off and the second spin out of control. Did you only put so i can make the rest or didnt you notice this?
@LeoBrasi canards, and normal stabilisers
