IMPORTANT

some things sometimes break when you edit them or parts near them,
here is what likes to break.

the rotary engine is a nightmare, ideally don't even touch the prop, and yes, its meant to spin.

the lewis gun has a mechanism inside it that can sometimes be iffy

the wings sometimes like to flop down if you edit them so ideally don't (I learned this the hard way)

the elevators can sometimes cease if you edit them.

the cocopit controls also sometimes cease.

these things happen when you change the shape of parts, (this is why this annoying thing has taken me several months of frustrating work to complete, I literally had to fix the wings and engine 7 times.)

rudder is not in final position

Controls for testing:

Landing gear is turn the engine on/off this is realistic as most planes of this era had 'blip' switches that turn off the engine, so you can turn it off and on repeatedly to slow down.

VTOL is your limited throttle,

everything else is pretty much the same but you need to use more rudder.

the flight characteristics are ideal at the moment exept for the stalling/rolling when pitching. the plane is also meant to ever so slightly pitch left as this is caused by the centrifugal force of the engine and propeller rotating

please be careful with my precious.

    @Chancey21 allrighty, i thought it had something to do with drag, it is always a problem with these planes but on most of my other planes that have done this i normally could fix them by editing the COM and COT thanks i will try and edit the drag!

    My parents only allow me to do SP on weekends (sux especially cause it’s summer) so I can’t fix until Saturday. But I can tell you what’s wrong: uneven drag. Use overload 1.0 to reduce asymmetrical drag @PlanesOfOld
