Project: top secret "next big thing" from LordofLego. Problem: exceedingly nose-heavy, but tips backwards on runway. Solution: try several fixes and then ask the community. Please help, and don't give away the secret with a big photo. Just tKe a close-up of one engine or something.

Edit: focus on the flight, not the landing gear.

    @A5mod3us Which wings? Front or back?

    @LordofLego Did you see my fix? It doesn't need to be less nose heavy. It flies just fine as it is. If it really bothers you, just change the wing shape to flat bottom.

    @RagnarosTheFirelord But the COM is almost directly under the COL. It won't work.

    @LordofLego The basic way... If you don't mind, add some dead weight at the tail if you use fuselages

    @LordofLego Done! All I did was move the front landing gear up vertically a little so it would sit level on the ground. I uploaded it as a successor for you.

    @A5mod3us I hadn't thought of the three view at the time. Do you have any ideas on how to fix it?

    You know, there's a three view that totally gives away what this is, right? lol.
    Pretty cool, though. One of my favorite WWII aircraft. Only one still in existence, and it's currently under restoration.

    Hm, use dead wights and part clip fuel tanks into the back.. Or front or just shift everything around slightly until it all works, that is how most of my designs get fixed, if at first you don't succeed try try again @LordofLego

    The issue is that the back landing gear is too far forward
