Auto Credit Based on Hankthetank20292's Can some fix this its unstable

Not perfect but she'll fly now! Cheers :)

  • Moved wings slightly forward, added some deadweight for balance.
  • Flight Controls: Reduced max. aileron deflection to +/-15 degrees.
  • Moved vertical stabilizer slightly aft.
  • Slightly expanded rudder, and reduced max. deflection.
  • Slightly increased elevator control surface size, reduced max. deflection angle.
  • Added slight automatic rudder input to counteract adverse yaw tendency, (varies inversely with airspeed).
  • Added airspeed-dependent pitch trim.
  • Added small angle of incidence to the horizontal stabilizer.

Good luck! she is still a bit unstable in roll at low speeds with full pitch input!....
