This video is a continuation from previous video which is about how to design RC plane plans. When designing RC plane plans, we need to build and test it to fly so we can improve the plans. I made this model using Blender 3D program, Pepakura Designer and together with Inkscape. You can find part 1 of how to use it on my channel. This Zenith CH750 model is modelled exactly the same with the real one but it's smaller, the wingspan is 120cm or 47.2 inches. I usually modified, or enlarge the size of the wing and stabilizer when converting it to RC model, but this time I make it exactly scale for education purpose. The model finally can fly after some trial, but with some adjustment from the real one.

I never have a successful seaplane until now, this Icon A5 is beautiful to see and also a good flyer. You can choose to take it off from ground or from water, I have the plans for landing gear too. It made out almost entirely with 6mm Depron foam and a few plywood parts. It has a clear canopy and a pilot figure from papercraft that you can build. The decal also available for download. The plans come with A4 and A0 size and A3 for the decal. It has some issue on the tail but I already add plywood reinforcement part on the plans.

Hey guys, welcome to Babyplane channel, this is our very first video. We will present you with cute and chonky RC plane models, with build video and share the drawing plans, so can build it yourself. This Baby Corsair is for a start, the wingspan is about 40 inch or 1 meter and the flying weight is about 35 ounce or 1 kg.

This is the first time I make a glider like model aircraft. I build and make the plans for this MQ-9 Reaper because there are many request for this UAV drone and it looks cool with all bombs and missiles it can carries. Learning from many previous model on Youtube videos, I decided to make the size of it with 2500mm wingspan, to give lighter wing loading. I enlarge the wing area almost doubled also made the stabilizers a bit bigger then the scale for maintaining stabilization. Surprisingly it take off without any issue and fly very stable and floating.

About 2 months ago I made a poll about what the next radio control plane model on my Youtube Channel Community tab. The winner is the P-47 Thunderbolt 'Razorback' version. I made the model in Blender 3D, you can see the process of 3D modelling in this video. The reason I made 1200mm wingspan is to match my P-51 Mustang scale, both have 1/10 scale. It equipped with servoless retractable landing gear. I have a problem locking the landing gear strut, I just use CA glue so it don't have enough strength. I also made the plans for fixed landing gear. At first I use the wrong CG which is 7,7 cm, the correct CG after some trial is exactly 7 cm from leading edge of the wing root. The can fly straight with the correct CG but needs more power, I recommend to use 4S for maximum performance, but you can still fly with 3S for scale flying. I haven't fly any RC model on the last months so I was a bit clumsy in landing and take off.
