Please can you fix the stability of this jet? It shakes and twitches when pitching down

    @ToeTips probably won't hurt it, but if the fuselage wings do affect performance, set mass and dragScale to 0 and that should probably fix it.

    @32 Thank you very much, ill scale down the wings and add fuselage wings. I'm guessing it won't effect anything

    The issue seems to be the forward swept wings. They're aerodynamically unstable, so that's why it twitches weirdly. here is a fixed version that flew just fine for me. If you want the looks of the forward swept wings, you can scale them down and put them inside a fuselage part because using the scale tool doesn't affect how wings perform. Great plane though, this is way better than anything I was building at white rank. I'm interested to see where your career goes.
