This instructable is written as if the reader has experience in building RC airplanes, so I will not be going over how to set up the radio or setting throws. Lesson learned, recalculate CoG (center of gravity) before you just give it a try. There are videos at the end, but I cut it off as soon as it left the ground as the ground came back just as fast as it took off. Spoiler alert, after many months of designing in a 3d cad program and printing it, I did get the chance to maiden it, but the first attempt was unsuccessful and the second attempt the actual flight was very (very) short. I choose a simple delta wing (Mirage 2000), with the thought that it would be would be the best bet for the first attempt. I went from SR71 blackbirds all the way thru F-14 tomcats, but in the end I started with a simpler design. There were so many that I liked that it made the decision tough. I started off by figuring out what airplane I would like to do. I will tell you I have never stick built an rc plane so I did not have the background to figure out things like wing profiles. At first I purchased some of 3Dlabprint ( rc airplanes to test them out. I would like to share my attempt at 3d designing and printing my own rc airplane.
