Hey Im workin on the Pfalz. I cant Even get the thing flying. I skrewed with engine specs and I think I really skrewed it up. When it takes off The front end goes straight up in the air and then it flips on its side. Any help?

Which airfoil are you using for the wings? I would be happy to take a look at it for you.

Lets try and narrow it down.

What is the airfoil you are using for the wings?
What is the engine phyLBS?
What is the engMaxHP?
What is the prop phyLBS?

Sebulba,

I found your problem. Your airPoints are WAY off. Select a wing in OPS and look for the blue arrow - it is WAY infront of your plane. This is where the lift force for the wing is applied. You set the airPoint via XYZ coords in the airfoil propery list of the wings and tails. Fix this and your plane should fly MUCH better

I just sent you an email too...
