Stormworks Basics: Aerodynamics Tutorial 

A nose heavy plane flies poorly, a tail heavy plane flies once.

Haha great idea to put the nlg steering through the gyro XD

building an f35/f22 inspired masterpiece atm and this is just what i needed.

As of this point, I have recently finished my Messerschmitt Me-262 build, and just for realism's sake I added flaps. And I was very suprised that it worked. I mean the plane got a bit too realistic, it sometimes loses engine power randomly, which I feel like is realistic for a plane that is powered by two jet engines that are rated for 24 hours of flight

Man, YOU ARE DEDICATED! I LOVE your dedication!

I fly irl as well (private pilot single engine & hanggliders). I'm building a constellation inspired aircraft in Stormworks and measured blocks out according to some reference images, and to my surprise it all balanced out very nicely, center of mass was right in the middle of the wings, the very first flight was almost perfectly trimmed without modification

Thanks. I was having some issues trying to get a plane working. I'm going to go back and give some of this a try now.

Not what i was looking for but very well done none the less. Im hoping to find why control surfaces flap like crazy when flying... So if you happen to know or i missed it while listening in the back ground, please let me know. Its been a nightmare for years in this game.

Do blocks really provide lift in SW???
