I will add a series of articles teaches you how to make an RC model airplane, they’re essential ways to start modeling!
Here I’ll teach you haw to make a plane body based on wood. First step is to get a model plane’s plan! You can find that online and then print in real size or you can ask me to send them to you through Comments for this post.
A normal map contains designs for: main body, wing, airfoils, ailerons, horizontal stabilizer and elevator and vertical stabilizer and rudder.
Then you’ll have to buy required materials that you should understand from the map, but to start your project you’ll need nothing rather than woods! Wood’s kind depends on the plane you have chosen but most of RC planes are made of balsa and plywood.
You can give me some information and then I’ll tell you what to use in each part also through comments. But for medium sized model plane I offer plywood for main body and balsa for rest of parts.
Start your plane with printing the main body’s plan on your wood using carbon paper, you should put carbon papers between your plan and wood then pushing a pen on the main body’s lines so you see the plan printing on the wood.
Now you should cut it with a cutter very carefully.
