Another mini plane series. . After much testing, for stable & better flight, I replace elevator (pitch control) with rotator. On the run way after gaining speed move the rotator downwards (2nd last or last arrow is fine) smoothly for lift-off. DO NOT move rotator downwards while stationary. Once lift-off move the rotator to the middle arrow or slightly lower. Use rotator to assist a tighter turn. Flap to be used together with rotator. Have a nice flight. . .

Hi, no need to apologise. Manage to get it with helps from others. People in here, including you, are friendly and helpful. Thanks. .
@blindspot61 Sorry for replying late. You will need to have overload installed, so if you don’t already, it’s under the mods tab on the main menu, so activate that. Then, while highlighting the prop that you want to edit, click the overload button at the bottom of your screen (it’s a </> over a plane). Go to the drop down menu at the top of the pop up box and select ‘Prop engine advanced’. Now, what you want is to edit the power box. Change the power unit to whatever you need it to be. (Keep in mind that 2 power units is one horsepower). I recommend setting it to 6000. I hope this is useful, good luck.

Hi, Am seeking your valuable input.
I am creating a mini P-51/ I am using the Blade T1000 which is kind of under power (I have already set the HP to the max in the setting). Blade T2000 is too big to fit in and the round shape is not suitable. Is there anyway I can 'mod' the Blade T1000 for additional HP? Thanks in advance.
@Dragons103
Thank you. . :)
It’s really good. You’re getting better!

Thank you for your input.
Yes, building micro plane is such a challenge!
I had tried swapping but its wobbly during flight. Test flies many ways and finally settle for this. .
Great build! I love micro builds but they tend not to fly well but you have fixed that. My advice is to swap the inputs between the elevators and the flaps. All in all you’ve done a great job.
