Use the Nav Sphere to fly - it relies on auto-pilot to control the pitch and yaw, and the roll needs to be manually controlled for level flight and bank for turns.
It flies and turns slow, adjust pitch and yaw gradually...but the electric motors can go for a long flight(1000 KM+), and has some hidden solar panels to charge back up.
it flies just above stall speed - throttle needs to be on while its flying, and about 80-90% for landing speed. Vanilla build

@CPSU3417 - i havent uploaded a newer version, i keep trying it on different platforms (windows/android/ios), and it has taken off and flown every time. i tested some minor adjustments, and each one made it fly worse...so im kind of stuck on what to do, and cant find what is making it not take off for some players - i wish i could see it happen, so i could try to fix it right

The 14-Bis airplane, the “first” airplane ever made, despite some discussions worldwide -

@edufrs14 - he did do the first flight launched without the rail system that the Wright brothers used, and he had a lot of awesome designs - it would be fun to build one of his also, do you have any ideas of a good one to build...the Demoisille looks like it could be cool?

I thought she flies beautifully manually! Be a pilot grab a joystick and hand fly this beauty!!

@Dogetato9974 - sorry its not working there, which version are you using(android/windows/ios)? im wondering if its a difference in settings or game versions that is just enough to keep it down - and puzzled why it isnt taking off for you - i wish i could replicate it to fix it, but ill try adjusting some parts, and see if i can get some more lift and propeller thrust - and send you a link, about a day or 2, if that sounds good?

@SmurfResearchX i tried everything you said but it didnt takeoff before the runway ended it just keep going on the ground

@Dogetato9974 - the auto takeoff should lock the heading and speed up to about 90M/s, and liftoff before the end of the runway - the electric motors are not at full power, maybe try turning up the "motor torque" setting in "part properties" on both of the propeller motors...it is flying and taking off on my phone, so im not sure why it isnt working - but if the motor torque change doesnt work, let me know, and we can try something else

It keeps failing to takeoff. Even when using nav sphere or auto takeoff.
@Elga2048 - Thank You
