Help needed

The right wing keeps dipping rather harshly. I can't tell what the problem is, and have no clue on how to possibly fix it. Any help would be appreciated on how to fix this.

    @LAGDragon That's a good idea on it's own. I was playing around on another prototype and found an issue in that apparently if the weight is too low and back it fucks with it. I have no clue why the plane pulling to the right would happen because of it. I'll see if I can get that to work later.

    @TheBlueRobotProduct, I noticed the that it tilted right most sharply when I pulled up.
    You could, if worst comes to worst, change the size of ONE of the elevators (horizontal stabilizer control surface) so that there would be a counter balance. If it doesn't work, well, I think your Idea should do well enough! :)

    @ShatSlanger Aye, I have. It's still the same problem. The wing is just not working for me. :/ Also, thanks! Light fighters FTW!

    @LAGDragon Tried that, wouldn't work. I have no clue where I'm going wrong. :/ Might just add a weight or something on the other side and see what to do with that.

    @TheBlueRobotProduct make the airfoil on the right flat bottom,or the left symmetrical, or both, or check to see what the air fails are in the first place

    @CALVIN232 I've tried to do so several times now. Hasn't worked. :/
    @ShatSlanger might just be a bit of a bug for me only then. Can anyone else confirm it works or doesn't work for them?

    Try removing the part and replacing it sometimes the wings bug out and that's the only thing I know that works
