Material needed
Point of this plane is that it is fairly balanced, and easy to fly, not crazy responsive and almost impossible to fly like smaller planes. This is basic scout once you hit GSO lvl3.

To make it you need:
1 GSO Cab
12 GSO One block
2 GSO Turbine Propellers
3 GSO stabiliser wheel
1 GSO Left Hihgwind Airfoil
1 GSO Right Highwind Airfoil
3 GSO rudder AIrfoil

Assembling the airplane
Balancing is achieved by weight distribuition, so make plane like on images below



That was easy, right?

also, put 4 engines, each side. on 4 blocks behind cab (remove 4 1x1x1 that hold wings now). wings on engines on same place as before. it is balanced but 4x faster.

@Szabista, here is balancing guide for plane design.

What I expected from this guide:
- understand what makes a plane balanced
- have fun playing digital lego
- end up with a pretty good plane for campaign use

What did I get:
- fun playing digital lego
- revelation that Payload nerfed the crap out of those turbines
- a barely functional, still perfectly balanced plane which isn't practical anymore

The guide will be useful again if it
- instructs the user how to construct a plane that works well in the current branch of the game
OR
- teaches the user how to balance an aircraft
OR
- leaves the user with a plane that can be expanded upon without fear of messing up its balance

That can only be bug, as I never before heard about gso wings missing from creative.
