Playing around with what contrasting dihedrals an achieve. seems as though it allows us to affix two sets of wings at adverse dihedrals to the same block, with no clipping. This plane is steady and fast, and should be good fun to fly. slight compromise on looks to acomodate landing gear, I will be working on this. As always, all the best to you guys.

    @ZFM99 thanks agin buddy. Lol. You know I always appreciate your critique, has always helpd me. Your right, I do always neglect yaw, you being the ace pilot I can imagine it's frustrating not having it. To be honest I have tried a few time to include yaw on my planes, but the silly angles I always try to encorperate almost always render any yaw useless, as you say it's always too focused on design. I'll see if I can make you a flyers plane :) again mate,appreciate your rating. Can't wait for your next plane by the way, how you getting on?

    Stop making flying art and make a plane with a rudder! I need my yaw! Lol... solid plane, flies straight good pitch but a little lacking on roll.

    @humangrenade actually I'm nearly finished mate. Head to teach myself (went to the reddit site) how to use rotating parts. So I'm sorted on the wheels now. This also provides some forward movement on water, getting the ugly monster to fly is not as easy. Give me time dude. I work on it bit by bit as it is something I have never done, it's not going to be pretty at all and I'm not sure I can make it work the way I want it to yet. It's a good challenge, but I am still working on the fundamentals right now.

    Oh and by the way, I did remove the block struts I added to acomodate the landing gear, and it still works fine, but take off is ugly as hell. As the downward angled wings scrape on the ground not allowing takeoff until the grass at the end of the runway, and that just didn't sit right with me. Feel free to remove all of the blocks on the underside, and add landing gear and you will see what I mean. All the best.
