project

I want to make something go really really fast. IDK how it'll work or anything though. I mocked up a design in onshape and put it in airshaper to see what would happen. I set the speed to 200mph and it looks alright but I don't really know what it's supposed to look like. Here is the link to the...

Hello, This is the start of a project that I want to scale up and get electronics on eventually. I call it the moth. I designed the airframe and wings based on a picture of a moth. It is intended to be a fantasy(fun) build and an exercise in aerocrafting. I have just started the hobby and this...

Intro (Skip if You Want!): I've been a long time lurker on these forums, but I do a fair bit of designing/building/flying of planes, and it has been a long term goal for me to embark on a project specifically for by fixed wing fans and put it up on these forums and become a contributor myself...

This is a progress log of my project to recycle and old Rc plane and turn it into a sort of fantasy STOL airplane. Inspired by the huge amounts of nice bush planes available on the market lately I wanted one of my own. I wanted mine to be different and also thrifty! I was originally going to...

At Flite Fest East 2017 I brought an 8ft wingspan Lancaster bomber to fly at the event. Although it was a lot of fun I did not get the satisfaction of working with a group of people. I have four escs, four b pack motors, lots of battery's, a cnc machine, and a 3D printer. Is anybody interested...

Hello I tried this earlier but no one seemed to be interested but I wanna try one more time. I have had this idea for a while to try and build more of the swappable jets and i figured since there are three letters of the phonetic alphabet for the first 3 jets (alpha, bravo, charlie), why not...

Hello to all, my name is Jeffery! Inspired by this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4q1BQG8Vm1A I came up with a simple idea for a challenge:•The competitors build drones and or planes •They switch up builds and whoever can do the most damage to the other's aircraft wins Clearly it may...

Hello there Pilots! Introduction First things first, I just registered myself to the forum and therefore am not sure if this is the right Forum to post this. Please correct me! So, I just started building myself a 450 sized quadcopter. The quad will be used to do some homebrew aerial...

Hi, I'm a complete newbie in the world of multirotors and relatively uninitiated in the RC world. However, i am doing a project at college that requires me to build and fly a drone as a platform for something relatively heavy. I know you are all going to suggest i start off with something less...
