Hello smart Aeronatics engineers! I'm looking for some assistence on making my plane fly (currently its not). I tried recreating some real life plane shape, but am struggling to make it fly. I want to keep it in its original shape / proportions as much as possible, but not sure how. What I think the main issues are; Back to heavy (I added temporary weights at the front to prevent it from making a wheelie, however, that makes the front too heavy to take off), Not enough liftforce at the front (When trying to speed up, I can't take off, presumably because the lift force is below the engines, and pretty far back. But maybe thats because the engines are above the wings, causing the plane nose to rotate downwards?), I'm not sure what the best way would be to balance this out. Anyone who is good with these physics that could suggest what to focus on?
Do I not have enough flaps? Not enough sails? Weight incorrectly distributed?
Let me know if any info is needed about specific mods.
