    It looks functional! I was able to add an engine to the middle of the aircraft and it flew just fine. I ended up moving the Wing Landing Gear further inward/forward. It's best to have the Rear Gear just slightly behind the Center of Mass (CoM) so the aircraft has a balance point to pivot off the runway. You might want to extend the nose gear too. As it rests now, the nose sags into the ground which doesn't help with lift. You may also want to decrease the size of the ailerons as they give it a very sensitive roll rate. So long as (CoM) is in front of (CoL) and (CoT) is relatively pointing through (CoM) and (CoL), You should be golden!
