@skittles1a You are welcome, anytime you need help ask me! :D
@Geebers for some reason it isn’t showing up. I’ll try to see I’m a bit of it works.
@Strikefighter04 thank you’
@TheWhistlingDeath I fixed it! The problem was I needed a larger surface area on the rails but I forgot one thing. I put full weight on the tip so now I took the weight away. It still goes down a tiny bit but mostly fixed. Thank you for all the help. :D
Ok! I'll be looking foward to seeing it. @skittles1a
I tried my hand at helping you. You should be notified
@skittles1a ok! :D try that
@skittles1a i will download it and figure it out
@TheWhistlingDeath I think that is the problem because I made them small.
also try making the wings a bit less swooped and maybe try adding bigger control
surfaces on the tail.
@TheWhistlingDeath on one test it did when I changed the shape of the wings. Other than that, nope.
@Strikefighter04 thank you for being supportive. I’ll fix the plane soon, hopefully.
@skittles1a is it contantly doing backflips?
@skittles1a hmm... give me some time
I know, but great job so far! @skittles1a
@Strikefighter04 thank you it is a work in progress though :)
@TheWhistlingDeath I added a thruster right at the back and it improved but still won’t pull up.
Awesome job!
@skittles1a ok, good luck!
@TheWhistlingDeath okay I’ll see if it works, and hopefully it will.
put the engine in the tail and make sure there is enough thrust (speed) to pull up
(the reason it is not pulling up is there is not enough thrust to do so and this plane is not built to be a glider
