    @SledDriver fair enough. The elevator's control surface could go a little smaller though

    @Rymanx03 Remove dead weight, use massScale - they both achieve the same thing. And that alone isn't enough for stable flight, it needs a bigger vertical stabilizer as well.

    @SledDriver Much easier - remove the dead weight from the back. And make the wings slightly bigger. Works quite well

    • center of lift is too close to center of mass
    • wing loading is too high
    • vertical stabilizer is too small

    To fix:

    • on every white block that makes up the fuselage, set massScale to zero.
    • double (at least) the size of the vertical stabilizer, then scale it down so it's the same apparent size.

    Optionally, make the wings bigger to get the wing loading down to between 25-75 lb per square foot. You can scale them down later if you don't want to change the appearance of the aircraft.
