** FT P-47 Plans Addendum ** Part 15 on the FT P-47 version 1.0 plans was actually a part from a different model. Flite Test sent me the correct file and I'm working to update the full plan set to version 1.1. In the meantime, here is the correct part for those working from the version 1.0 plans.

Its been a looong time, but here we go again! In the past, I experimented a little with super tiny EDF units, with very limited success. The planes were too small and issues with thrust tube and motor cutoff due to ESC overheating made me stop working with EDFs for a long time. But now I wanted...

(GO TO PAGE 11 FOR PLANS AND BUILD VIDEO) So I have always been around the real Stearman because my grandfather restores and flies them. I decided to make the Stearman because I had a balsa wood kit lying around for a rubber band powered model. I took the plans to Staples and got them scaled...

The White Diamond was originally designed in my head over a work lunch, and stemmed from a desire to build a small, fast plane using only one sheet of foam board in the minimum amount of time possible. Influenced by my love for sleek stealth aircraft, this plane takes a unique approach to single...

Here are some plans for a mini Bf-109. The plans aren't pretty, but, feel free to give it a whack. Here are some things you need to know to build it. For the top hatch peel the paper off the bottom side to help it bend. Then for the power pod just sink it in until the motor doesn't show, and...

This project is already almost done, so I know already that it was a huge success. First, a big thanks goes to Vimana89 for inspiering me with his slender delta. I wanted something with a wide flight envelope that is also dulable and easy to build and handle. So I combined the delta with an...
