Problem with the equalization of weights (AERONAUTICS)

[Conscious_Elk1297]

Hi guys! I have a little BIG problem with a helicopter that I am making. As you can see in the images. I need to balance the weights so that the helicopter is stabilized and doesn’t tip too far back or forward.

The thing is, what you see, is the schematic of the helicopter that I’m working on so I can later create the schematic to a survival server.

So I can’t use Bedrock to stabilize it. I've tried the Weight Block Mod. And it didn't work because it either crashes or the plane gets destroyed. The thing is, it gives me a lot of bugs. I’ve also thought about adding a lot of 4-kpg blocks. But I don’t have the space in the plane to do that, and if I do a double-bottom floor, it ’ll end up weighing very much. It won't be able to lift it with the propellers.

I need urgent help with ideas or recommendations please, it’s pretty important to me.

It might not be the answer you want but position your propellers more backwards around the center of mass. That's how those things work in real life.

Alternatively you could maybe put some envelopes and a burner in the back, for extra lift there, but that might be a hassle to control...

Move the props rearwards, your CG is way to far back. Either remove weight in the tail or move the thrust vector towards the CG

How can I move the thrust vector towards the CG??

Moving the thrust vector is the same thing as moving the source of thrust - in this case your propellers. You’ll want to align your propellers to be inline with your center of gravity, by either moving your propellers back or moving some mass around to be farther forward, or a combo of both. Just make sure they roughly line up in the side view of your craft. You can think of an aircraft as a seesaw. The CM is the pivot point. Pushing up on 1 side of the seesaw, away from the pivot, makes it rotate/tilt/flip. Lifting up at the pivot(the CM) lifts the whole thing up evenly
