A VTOL Star crusier. It flies, but I need help. The VTOL works perfectly, but I cannot get the wing borne flight to be stable. It just keeps nosing down no matter what I do. Any ideas would be gratefully received. Thank You.

I have had a play with that. Doesn't seem to make much difference.
Maybe it's the wing placement (center of lift=COL)
Yep. In fact half of the trust is right at the front for the VTOL.
Have you tried more thrust at the front? ;)
