Swept wings control surfaces wont invert?

[Jack5.exe]

I was making a plane and 2/3 control surfaces were inverted (3 on 1 wing) and I've flipped them, inverted the deploy direction but no help. any ideas? (Version 1.3.0)

If you think about it carefully, the deploy direction of a control surface needs to depend on its location relative to the CoM of the plane. Ahead of the CoM, they need to go one direction, and behind they need to go the other. So for control surfaces on swept wings that run both before and behind the CoM, the game tries to figure it out for you, but it can get really confused (especially if the CoM moves during flight). Note, of course, that control surfaces that are very near your CoM tend not to have any effect on your flight anyway. But I'm surprised that inverting the deploy direction didn't work for you -- that often fixes the problem for pitch and yaw.

But the basic answer is mostly "don't do that" if at all possible. Put your control surfaces on straight wing segments that are clearly ahead of or behind your CoM.
