    @OtterOfToast It took some tweaking, but check out my new version. This one flys much better.

    @Reed7742 Yeah, it'd be best to start with a full-sized plane. SimplePlanes just isn't easily equipped to handle scaled aircraft yet, I wouldn't think.

    @OtterOfToast That's what I figured. I went in and changed a few things. Weight is right where it should be for the plane (1900lb) fully loaded, but it's a highly acrobatic plane and I can't get the power out of it to do what I want, even with way overpowered motors.

    @Reed7742 Alas, the scale just won't work. The weight is too heavy and it's too difficult to control. Try starting with a regular sized plane and work your way down. Always start with the basics. I could give you answers on any specific question you have, just about, if you'd like. I've got a lot of good prop and jet aircraft that you could study. Plenty more on the website as well :D

    @OtterOfToast That's the frustrating thing. It's built basically to scale of the real life plane. If you've got some tips, just let me know. I'm all for it!

    It appears to be too heavy to fly, and the vertical stabilizer is a little small to hold it right. I'm sure with a little tweaking, it'll be fantastic! The shape of the aircraft is pleasing and it's refreshing to see such a wonderfully small plane. If you'd like some help, I'm right here :3
