Auto Credit Based on LieutenantSOT's Thunder Hawks Challenge Dos! [CLOSED]

this is my next plane, but it keeps turning once ghe engines start. The CoM is in the middle, and I've tried moving the center of mass to the right side so it adds weight. If anyone has suggestions, please help

    @LieutenantSOT try the following in this order:
    use mirror, check if everything is connected, ensure that one side has reversed rotation and the other does not
    upgrade the gyro if necessary (or add another)
    add a scaled down tailfin (make it huge then scale it down so you can nudge it into your plane)
    make sure the tailwheel is not able to turn (unless you need it to)

    @NexusGaming I have done everything and it still turns. It is more stable for a split second, and then it starts turning. Any suggestions? And thank you so much for the help!

    @LieutenantSOT also use the mirror tool to ensure that everything is even plus put the engines on one side to reverse rotation (this makes them rotate in the opposite direction, which means that the torque gets countered out) the side does not matter as long as the opposite side has normal rotation propellers

    @LieutenantSOT use some gyros and infinite fuel blocks (i have infinite fuel blocks in all of my aircraft, you should remove all of the fuel in the aircraft before installing those) plus change Wing-3 and Wing-5 to Wing-2 (structural wing)
