Advice for Building Planes?


Recommended Posts

Okay, so this is kinda odd, but I have two questions:

Best way to build planes, and best way to build spaceplanes.

I've built many planes, but none of them are good, and I'd like to improve them.

If you have any general advice to these questions I'd really appreciate it if you answered a few of these questions.

Planes

What is the optimal Center of mass/center of lift relationship (where should they be relative to one another)

How should the tailplane be structured? (What winglets to use, and how)

Landing gear placement?

Finally, I've often tried to launch planes only to have them swerve back and forth on the runway for seemingly no reason. Any reason for this?

Spaceplanes

What engines do you recommend using? I tried Rapiers, which didn't work too well for me, and the aerospike, which also didn't work in my design.

If you could answer a couple of these questions, it'd really help me. I'm not too good at this game :sticktongue:
