@Solent19
Yes it is. But nice job!
@TheMouse that with the control surface worked fine the last time i flew it, but we all know SP is weird sometimes
I SEE ULTRALIGHT I UPVOTE ULTRALIGHT I SPOTLIGHT ULTRALIGHT I LOVE ULTRALIGJHT
And lastly, on the right side, you forgot to remove the mass from one of the nose cones, so the COM was not in the middle. But I removed it, and it worked fine.
Also, just tried it. I really like this design, with the thin fuselage, nice work on this. I did notice one mistake on the left side, where the custom control surface was connected to both the fuselage and the rotator, so I removed that connection, and it worked perfectly. Nice work.
Btw, if you want to check if this is VR capable, add the vr tag. You will need to remove one of the other tags to make it work (maybe propeller, as it is not super necessary) but if it has the VR tag, a curator will try it, and if it is good enough, they will curate it for VR.
