I have tried to get this airplane to fly for some months. I¨¨¨¨'m not a good builder wich is probably the reason why this airplane isn't flying. I've tried to get a good CG and stuff but still no luck.

    Emmm ... indeed, if you can, you might try lengthening the fuselage, wing area and center of gravity.

    @Dylman2 do you still want to keep the delta wings?

    I'm guessing it's because of the center of mass not being in the middle or it could be just aerodynamic issues.
