Not a big deal, just a small imperfection in the tail section that needed to be cleaned up. Controls are the same as previous.

HAPPY FLYING!

    @BAFLegacy Just realized what you meant. Above I said "The only small problem is if you nose down really hard." What I mean was, it flies just fine, unless you try to dive suddenly, especially at low speeds. Then it has a tendency to go into a weird, nose-down stall, and usually it'll recover itself after a second. This isn't unique to this plane. A lot of real aircraft don't react well to rough handling like that, either.

    @BAFLegacy It doesn't really have a nose down issue, as far as I can tell. In fact, once it gets up to speed, the nose tends to rise due to the wing's high lift.

    @UltimatePilot I play on high physics and I don't have any stability issues. The only small problem is if you nose down really hard. Even most real planes don't react well to that.
