satire build yall but thanks for the help ✌️
Ooh, this one has a few problems.
Oh, and before you read on don't feel bad, most of us have been here and faced the same problems.
1) First off, as UwUDarkDustiness noted, most of the problems stem from the tiny wings on the tail. Attaching wings to the tail puts a lot of stress on the aircraft at high speeds. This causes the aircraft to fly apart. The solution here is to either move the wings forward from the tail (right before the real landing gear seems about right for this design), OR strength the wing by using one structural wings, connecting them together, and possibly bracing it with a bit of fuselage. Move the wings forward is the better option here because of point #2 below.
2) The center of lift (the blue circle when you hit the space bar in build mode) is too far behind the center of mass (the red ball). This causes the aircraft to flip end over end upon take off. The solution for this is the either move the center of lift or the center of mass so that the red ball is only about one ball length's ahead of the blue one. Taking those wings in the back off on the tail and placing them a bit forward (right before the landing gear would solve this (and point #1).
3) The tiny wiglets also aren't strong enough to take the force of flying at speed, and they tear off at around 300 mph. With your powerful engines and the designs need for speed to fly this is a problem. The solution here is to strength the wing. There are a few ways to do this, such as reinforcing the wing by adding some fuselage to act as a brace, but the best solution is probably to use structural wings, and edit them to add control surfaces.
4) Minor quibble but the elevators are reversed. That is most people expect that the aircraft should climb when you pull back on the stick. But, some people prefer it the other way. The solution (if this is a problem for YOU) is to invert the pitch on the forward wings.
Here is a link to a version of the plane that should fly.

Its because of the tail wing.
