So yeah, here it is, as the title says. A dual chaos engine powered bi-plane with synchronized (generally) propellers with controllable pitch. (Sadly it needs to be on invincible)
It's kind of finicky when taking off, that's why I put it near the lift pad area.

The reason I gave it two engines is because a single engine torqued the body too much and couldn't fly reliably.

Here it is flying around:

And on the ground, just chillin:

Controls:

Propeller pitch: Z and X
Elevator: Up and Down arrow
Tail: Left and Right arrow
Roll (ailerons): Q and E

Enjoy! And someone see if they can get this damn thing to be lighter and actually take off!

Or was it the didn't give enough thrust?

Try using wing panels instead of wings. At least i find wing panels to genetrate more lifting power for the same weight. And using propelers instead of wing panels is much better because you can make faster engine, wing panels cant take the spining force of lets say one chainsaw, and propelers can take three times as much. I also find chaos engines hard to take off with a plane because it breaks so much in the middle. There you go.

I tried that, and for some reason the thrust was unevenly distributed and it yawed to the left.

Also here's my updated design (Without chaos):
