    @Sirstupid you have to link the URL to the actual plane, linking it to the "successor" page doesn't do it. It's unlisted, after all.

    @Sirstupid it's still unstable, at any speed. Any ideas?

    @Sirstupid do you XML? An 8 blade would be...fitting.

    @jsaret At six blades and 2.1 thickness it's more stable and faster.

    @Sirstupid biplane...? Also six-blades would be a good idea. It's kinda slow.

    @jsaret Don't make it a biplane. Also I'm going to go try i with six-bladed props.

    @Sirstupid haha. The plane seems to be a bit wobbly in general. Any thoughts based on your tests?

    @jsaret Well, pitch goes haywire but it's otherwise fine. As long as you don't need to do wimpy stuff like "pull up" and "land" you should be fine.

    @Sirstupid LOL they are structural panels. Shouldn't affect anything, but change them for regular/structural wings and tell me what happens :D
