Problem & constraints

I built an RC plane to learn foam-board construction, aircraft setup, and electronics integration.

The build needed light construction, aligned surfaces, secure control linkages, and accessible electronics. Both wings had to fit the same fuselage.

Design & approach

I built the foam-board airframe and installed the motor, receiver, and control components. The build description and component list are in the repository.

I chose the Tiny Trainer for its interchangeable training and sport wings, which let me change configurations without building another fuselage.

Files & documentation

Results

I assembled the aircraft and documented its parts.
