My Current Project. Having difficulty in getting to form VTOL to Forward Flight. Its Built with @Hellfirekoder fine tune mode and @SpiritusRaptor X10 VTOL engines. So it may look kinda neat but in reality its a paperweight. The Saucer section by itself will fly with a set of jetfighter style vertical stabs pointing down near the back of it. Anyway...to many of hours in to give up but i may shelf this for a bit and try my hand at something a bit smaller lol

    @Ezri I think u maybe right! I have been focussing on moving the COL. It maybe easier to move the COM. I will give that a shot!!! Thanks!!

    the center of lift is in front of the center of mass, after you get it in front of the center of lift, then after a few adjustments of your control surfaces, you should be fine. (:

    @thealban Won't give up lol. The problem I believe is its too top heavy and not enough control surfaces to manage it. This is my second attempt at this build. I just got another idea I will give a shot. Mk3 of the hull section. But that will be a day or two I think lol. Brain feels like jello at this point.
