Simpleplanes to RC: AAI Cygnet

55.4k Beefy  11 months ago

So what's up guys? It's been 2 years since I last posted a plane. Yeah, life got in the way, but I'll never forget the game that kindled my already burning love for aircraft.

I recently got into the radio control hobby, making my own Ansley Peace Drones, teaching me how to fly aircraft and overcoming my fear of crashing. The next logical thing to do is to make a scale model.

For this one, I'll be making an R/C Cygnet. I traced the three view drawings into Sketchup (primitive I know), exported the flat plans into LayOut, and exported it as a PDF. It'll made of foamboard, and most curvy parts will be sanded-off Styrofoam. It'll have a 40 inch wingspan, so it's less twitchy in the air.
