Hi, I see people flying 3-D planes very slow and stable. My planes seem to be unstable at these speeds. I always have one wing that tips or stalls. What mods do you make to make this better? I have lightened the plane but this did'nt cure it. I really want to make a rock solid plane here but can't find the right combo. I'm flying the Yak. Please help a confused piolet. Thanks in advance.

Dude to make a stable model is to make it bigger. This will make the plane easier to 3D but more unrealistic in flying. And have you tried the yak w/gyro? It will hover by itself.
You might also want to try putting the cg back toward the the back.

I've tried maker a bigger plane but messed it all up some how. Not sure what to adjust I guess. I have'nt tried that Yak yet and not sure if I want to. I really want to do this on my own as far as hovering goes. Thanks for your advice.

One thing I have learned is to lighten everything up on them then slightly change the wing profile along with changing the aerodynamic drag etc. Move the center of gravity around a bit, add a larger prop with less pitch.

SB13, I generally fly mine stock, except for changing the expo. It's all in the pilot. If you want to mod your plane, save it as something else. That way you can go back to it the way it was.
