    @Plumkaboom a helpful tip: if the plane does backflips move the wings back untill it stops flipping and has either a slight climbing motion or a slight diving motion. that way you know that the Center of Lift (CoL) is behind the Center of Mass (CoM) it also helps by pressing the (show center of mass button). its the triangle with the rectangle balancing 3 balls button. looks like a seesaw pressing that will help with anything wrong with the flight characteristics.

    This is a suggestion for your next build. Please don't take this to heart, but this plane is near uncontrollable. Try to make your next build a bit more controlable.
