Nice job but I am unable to solve the hovering problem, even I have the same problem with my planes
@dsr1aviation @hadesrocksz @WWIIPlaneBuilder @bjac0 final version coming tomorrow
@WWIIPlaneBuilder it fixed the vtol problem, however, it messed with how it flew in regular flight. But I was able to fix the problem by moving the col closer to the com, thanks for your help!
Cause once it gets to a certain speed the wings generate more lift and they are causing it to tilt back to the CoL, you did the right thing with the CoT but once it gets airflow around the wings, the CoL has a greater influence...
Make the CoM and CoL at the same point in the middle of the aircraft!
Id say add more rcn
@dsr1aviation idk how, I definitely would though
Use the new gyroscpoic cockpit mod :) it works great
Thanks @bjac0 that was fast
