HELP! [Solved]

So I have 2 problems, my first is that when it flies, the jet just slowly spins, try it out. My second one is when I try to spin quickly, it just explodes. Not sure if it’s a clipping thing, or if it’s a bug. But anyone who is super good with jets please help! When I take off the fuselage wing thingy that’s closest to the main body, it stops the first problem, if that helps.

Also, I don’t think it’s a weight problem, the CoM is nearly perfectly balanced. And I’ve tried to make my cockpit weightless.

    Ok I found out it was 3 problems. The first was the engine power, it was too fast. Second idk but making the wings weightless worked. Third was just the cockpit lights. It still explodes when I spin it. But I can just use air brakes probably for that one.

    @Walkerbulldog yeah, I found out if I remove all the fuselages from the wings, it stops the auto roll. But it still yanks the cockpit out of the plane if I roll the plane. I’ll keep testing, thank you though!

    If I had to guess from looking at it, I would say that it is the fault of the high roll speed. It bends the wings and the fuselage around them and when it hits the weapons at sufficient speed they explode. So for that either don’t mount weapons on the wings or just make the ailerons smaller for a more controllable roll rate that doesn’t break the wings. As for the auto-rotation I am not entirely sure however I mirrored the airplane and the auto roll rate was reduced significantly. It was still present though which leads me to believe that it is something that is connected on the main line which isn’t really affected by mirroring the plane, or it could be a trapped part that isn’t connected to the plane but weighs it down. If you are unable to find the cause it would help to add some a small wing to the left side to give it more lift and to keep it from dropping. I know it isn’t a misbalanced weight issue because the airplane keeps rotating even when inverted making me suspect there might be a wing section with slightly higher lift factor.

    I can't fix it right now, but I hope the upvote with make someone come. I will try to fix it later (I am in class)
