This is a just a lawn dart glider, just needs to come down from orbit and fly roughly near a certain area. It makes it through reentry very easily, keeping the nose up and stable. However, as soon as I get to the lower atmosphere it flips backwards. Why? The CoL is plenty far behind the CoM and it doesn't change throughout the flight.

Is it using enough fuel to lower the CoM below the CoP?
