@TheUltimatePlaneLover huhh
@Monarchii I have noticed another issue that can cause rolling though
For some reason drag isn't always symmetric even if your plane is. As you may notice on a lot of my new builds, any part that isn't in the center of the build (in terms of x-orientation) has no drag. It's for that reason. The original A-40A to I believe A-40C actually suffered this issue, but the A-40D, being the biggest revamp, ended this issue forever.
@TheUltimatePlaneLover hm...
@TheMouse Same but I don't think that's the issue (or was prior to being resolved), since it rolled while pitching. i mirrored the elevators so it shouldn't have any turning issues.
@Monarchii From my experience using Flat Bottom airfoil always works, hence why all my aircraft have it
@TheUltimatePlaneLover
Generally I go into overload, and change the range of the control surfaces, specifically to make them smaller on roll. It takes a few tries sometimes, but that fixed it for me every time I have had it.
@TheUltimatePlaneLover probably, do you have any experience with it?
@Monarchii NO?!?
@TheUltimatePlaneLover not really, I think
@Monarchii To my knowledge, using Flat Bottom to stop wing stall works most of the time, right?
@TheUltimatePlaneLover it's honestly my bane too XD, on my harrier and Yak-38
@Monarchii Thanks for the help tho, if this issue ever does occur I’ll know what to do now (about wing stall)
@Monarchii Actually found the issue, one of the wings was wobbling due to lacking reinforcements, whilst the other wing was fixed. Plane is undergoing construction :D
@TheUltimatePlaneLover ah, wing stall. usually an issue with anhedral wings.. have you tried dihedral-ing the wings instead?
Oh also I've already "eliminated" some factors but you can fact-check them just to be sure:
-Weight misplacement: I've mirrored this thing about 12 times to ensure weight was symmetrical, but perhaps a piece is missing or smth from disconnecting
-Drag: Pretty much nothing except the fuselage and tail have drag, nor does the drag-view show any signs of asymmetrical drag
-Wing inputs: All the wing inputs appear to be accurate, but again, you can double-check
-Wing dihedral: I did a test with flat wings, same result.
-Wing airfoil: Sometimes this error occurs when the wings use a Symmetrical airfoil. All but the tail have Flat Bottom.

@TheMouse
I've tried my absolute best but this aircraft is broken...
Whenever I try to pitch, the aircraft will violently roll (see for yourself). Y'all know any way to fix this?
