- Increased yaw surfaces, reduced pitch surfaces
- Added thermostat to the heater to prevent it affecting the engine heat.
- Fixed the issue where pilot can leave the cockpit accidentally when canopy is closed.
- Still can't float on water

Junkers F13:
- Overhauled wing which increased total weight
