Auto Credit Based on mundindel's Gamepad issue

When the aircraft is loaded with 50t vehicle container, it behaves like the container weights more and creates more drag than identical in weight and size fuel tank with 50t dead weight.
To test, try 50% THR with container, mind max speed and attitude, then replace container with 50t dead weight fuel tank, repeat the test.
Expected: same behavior as long as Craft Mass and COG placement are the same. (BTW the indicated Craft Mass doesn't account for a container, shows 196t, while it's actually 246t total.)
Observed: with container - 9 m/s, nose goes down (1st screenshot); with dead weight - 15 m/s, nose stays up (2nd screenshot).
