If you are going to animate an aircraft flying in a circle, don’t leave it level. Bank the wings into the turn, like a real aircraft.

Good idea, it is easy to adjust, because on the top the fishing line goes through a hole (hole edges are beveled/chafed to reduce line wearing and breaking). Then the line is secure between two washers with a wing nut to tighten. In a day or so I will add how I built the stuff and by the way all the planes are scratched built, no kits involved as I did not want to pay $15 to $20 per kit👍
Also the prop is just a round piece of plastic that is scored to make it look like the prop is spinning.
If you would like I can try to send you a 30 second video to watch. This goes for anyone else who would like to see it in motion. Unfortunately I am unable to post the video in this forum, Apple product? My email is in my profile.
