Fuel tanks not filling correctly

Or so I think they don't...

When setting the fuel to 100% on the Mission Editor, the tanks are filled, except tank number 12, the right center tank. Is it, or the fuel indicator is wrong. However I believe that the tank itself is not filling up because the aircraft becomes VERY unstable to take-off, and after the take off sometimes it tends strongly to lower the left wing. Anyway, attached are the mission file and the track for you to check-it out.

No 12 bomb bay long range tank, is not fitted in our Mossie and therefore is always empty.

No 10 is the Centre tank.

No 2 Stub tank, are Inner tanks, (gauges on left).

No 4 Outer tanks (gauges on right).

It's an arrangement that even confused pilots.

Thanks again.

Indeed, not an easy, intuitive system.

As for the left wing dropping on take-off:  It's a quirk of the aircraft due to the two engines running the same way.
1/2 line right rudder trim and 1 line right aileron trim helps.
