work in progress This is a model that I've been working for a little while. It's still very much in progress; however, I decided to share what I've got so far. The plane has a short takeoff roll; however, it does pull to the left shortly before liftoff is possible. Once the "pull" starts, rotate for takeoff and then use aileron correction to level out. Apply trim down as speed increases to maintain level flight. On the plus side, I've managed to land on multiple surfaces due to the large wheels; however, don't be quick on the brakes or it will flip over. I'm definitely still working this model and will add the updated and hopefully final version soon as I work on the pull issue and add more details to the model itself. I'll also likely share one with and without instruments.

@Tarquez thanks :). I'll keep working on it. Thanks for the help.
I've looked myself...change tire type; removed ailerons from upper wing; lowered cockpit to get COM closer to COT...can't find it. Sorry.
@Tarquez Not yet. I originally thought there may be a doubled part somewhere, but can't find anything. I've checked the X, Y, and Z balance also. It has to be something small that i'm overlooking.
Nice work in progress! Would like to see the finished version. Any idea for the pull to the left?
