Hi.

It has been a while, and i need the community’s help again. This is a Mirage-esque project i have been working on for some time, and, while there are certainly more problems, the landing gear has me stumped. Whenever I commit to even the softest landing, it either bounces and explodes, or eats the pavement. I have tried every method I know, so I would greatly appreciate any tips or answers to my predicament.

Thanks!

In case you would like to fly this mess, I will warn you that she is sensitive and will stall very easily. This is partially intentional, for reasons I will reveal in the final product.

    Just remove like 50% of your weight and it should work fine, and then remove sideways and forward traction on main wheels and front wheels. @Shippy456
