I am making a new WWI era biplane, and I need you to make it able to fly. I need this to look the same as this at the end, but now it can fly from an Approach location. I have the mechanisms working on the fuselage wings, I just need someone to work with the flight dynamics and make it fly!

Maybe this might work as a start: http://www.simpleplanes.com/a/Qlm2x4/SonicManias-Biplane
I played around with the design a little and got it flying. It doesn't fly well but it flies. What I did was move the fuel (and weight) forward, and added some wings into the lower front wing and the tail section. You can adjust the performance to your liking by altering the size and scale of those wing pieces and/or the airfoil shape.
Let me know if you need more help with it.
Well, Ill continue looking. I hope you know Im happy you tried.
I am very sorry... this is making my brain hurt I think that the col “center of lift” is to low on the plane causing the plane to go down uncontrollably.
I’ll try
Yeah this has boggled my head, biplanes are somewhat challenging in SP
I must admit that the centre of lift is too low and I'm stumped! I think you need a proper player to help. Good luck!
Yup I can help I've done many of these!
