    So I have an SSTO plane that I want to be able to land on the ground or the water. I haven't played for a while so the water is new to me. I managed to land in one piece consistently now, but taking off is another thing. Despite 4 RAPIERS, my top speed in the water is 30 m/s. I must be dragging a lot, although my underside is made of nothing but fuselage, wings and landing gear (which of course I have retracted), so there's nothing I can get rid of. And even if I could go faster, there's the problem of pitching up, it just won't. I suspect this is because my "fulcrum" is way behind my COM at the back edge of the wings (it's a delta wing design). So that's my problem, I'm hoping to hear some ideas on how to solve it.
