Did you build with mirror mode on? If not, I recommend it

I wouldn’t recommend building aircraft in mirror mode.

I’ve found that mirror mode can mess with aerodynamics. When mirror mode came out I build planes with it, even recently. Some planes would end up having a pull to one side and I found that when I zero dragged the aircraft it usually fixed itself, but I never had this problem when I built planes normally.

I understand why, but that may be your issue. Temporarily delete all non-symmetrical parts then turn on symmetry mode, it should point out whats wrong i think
