Does anyone know how to make an airplane lighter? This plane dives on its own and if I put weight in the back the plane does a bit of rubbish (I'm on Android)

@atgxtg OK! I'll go there to download
To adjust the weight you generally use the editor, but I'm not sure if that it available in Android yet.
BTW, the problems seem to be than the landing gear is too heavy for the aircraft pulling it down, and the wings are too low. I lightened the wheels and raised the wings a bit and it flies more level (in fact it pitched up a little). It still needs fine tuning but I think you should be able to work with it. I hope it's closer to what you want.
