    thx @kikasshes

    @Matthew01 :
    keypad: you must empty the 3 fuel tanks front the engine... so will fly very well !!!

    @c4stor Every part can be scaled by adding the scale="x,y,z attribute to the part in the XML file.

    @Matthew01 @c4stor Most planes fly terribly with keypad. I don't get why anyone would use it. The mouse as joysticks works well if you don't have any real game pad or joystick.

    @c4stor No, the aircraft became out of control in the roll axis if you pull up :) by advance the center of mass, the plane became more steady and you can perfectly control the roll and the pitch in the same time
    And You're welcome :) If I can help, it's a
    pleasure :)

    low speed?

    @c4stor with this aircraft, no :,) the center of mass is yoo far back.
    For the size of the airbrake, go to appdata/Locallow/Jundroo/SimplePlanes/AircraftDesigns and select the file of your aircraft. Found the line with the parts which you want modifie and add the parameter : scale = "" ex : scale="0.5,4.5,4.5"

    @c4stor I think the real Mirage 4000 can pull up and turn in the same time :,)
    And you can't :,) you must use inlets

    @kikasshes : i am a noob ( one week of simpleplanes...)
    how did you scale inlets ????
    I should learn to scale ... please.

    Thx a lot .

    @Matthew01 ... I wanted this CG's dogfight ... BUT you can shift fuel using the big fuel tank near the engine ( i thought wasn't necessary to say it !!!) ...
    It isn't an Parkzone Radian Glider or an AS3X spektrum plane... it isn't an aeromodelling's plane...

    @Matthew01 Aeromodelling?

    @kikasshes There is a difference to an unstable plane and that. Try an aeromodelling's plane and you will understand :)

    @Matthew01 Considering that fighter planes generally are very unstable and only flyable thanks to onboard computer systems it does not surprise me that this would be unstable at all.

    @kikasshes Yes it's not a bad idea ... I've just note this in few seconds :,) But try to roll and pitch in the same time, the aircraft has the center of mass too far back

    Sometime we need to rescale some part to give a perfection project.. It's nice..

    @Matthew01 I hardly notice any difference. It is also much more preferable to shift fuel instead of adding dead weight.

    This plane doesn't fly well but you can put the dead weight of the tip of the fuselage at 1000 lb and it fly very well. But it look nice :)
