Due to popular demand, I had made a extra-extra-extra-large model of Aircraft-on-a-String.
Man. That is TALL.
It's tall enough that you can't see the top in the designer. If you try to you will usually end up breaking the designer view.
It's also tall enough that the string creates so much friction (and weight) that the propeller engine had some difficulty to overcome. Increase power if necessary.
Optimum speed < 60 kph
Does any of the control help? You had yaw and pitch and the like, but .... it's "tied" on a "string", so they don't really work.
