Homemade model plane

Let me talk about my design and production process, hope to help friends would like to and began to make model ships. The wrong place, also hope you communicate together. In accordance with the existing drawing making a model plane, is not a difficult thing. However, if according to your need to design a plane, I'm afraid of challenging. When you to lay hands on design and production, will encounter a lot of problems need to be solved. Such as: why do you choose this airfoil and wing span and chord is how to determine, what should be the fuselage length, the area of the tail how much, the position of the parts should be put in where and so on. But now the relevant books more, as long as the study summarized, in order to find the answer. According to my knowledge, I designed and manufactured so my rookie "1".The airplane is Nine Eagles 781B Sky surfer 4CH 2.4Ghz RTF RC Airplane.

Determine the airfoil. We according to the different USES of model planes to choose different airfoils. Airfoils, thousands of kinds. But taken together, the plane of the airfoil is roughly divided into three kinds. A flat convex profile, the characteristics of this airfoil is big to lift, especially when low speed flight. Drag the doctrine of the mean, however, and is not suitable for inverted. The airfoil is mainly applied in practice and like real machine. The second is biconvex airfoil. The characteristics of doubly salient symmetrical airfoil is generate lift under a certain Angle of attack, at zero Angle of attack does not produce lift. The plane was flying and head to fly when the pitch change is not big. The airfoil is mainly used in special machine. 3 it is concave and convex profile. The airfoil lift force is larger, especially in a slow lifting performance than other airfoil is excellent, but the resistance is bigger also. The airfoil is mainly applied in the glider and special plane. In addition, the thickness of the wing is to have cultured. The same airfoils, the thickness of the low speed of lift big, but resistance is bigger also. Small thickness of the low speed of lift, but resistance is small. Because I do is practice machine, then use the classic flat convex airfoil clark Y. Because of a certain flight viagra, speed can be faster, so I choose the thickness is 12% of the airfoil. Determine the area of the wings. Model airplane can fly, is good to fly, land and take off fast unhappy, wing load is very important. Tell commonly, the glider wing load under 35 grams/square decimeter,

ordinary fixed wing aircraft wing load of 35-100 grams/square decimeter, like real machine wing load in 100 g/square decimeter or more. I choose 60 grams/square decimeter wing loading. All the exercise machine general level 40 weighs about 2.5 kilograms. And because of considering the portable and easy to make, wingspan as 1500 mm. So, the area of the wings should be 405000 mm square. Through calculation, chord length is 270 mm. Also, common fixed wing aircraft aspect ratio should be between 5-6. Through calculation, the chord length in the specified range. Determine the area of the flap. After the confirmation of the size of the wing, you should calculate the area of the flap. Aileron area should be accounted for about 20% of the wing area, its length should be between 30-80% of the wing. Because exercise machine, need not be too sensitive, I selected by 15%. Because I use a servo drive around two flaps, so the length of the aileron to achieve a wingspan of about 90%. Through calculation, the aircraft flap area for 60750 square millimeter, so, the side flap area is 30375 square millimeters. ok,now it s almost done,most parameters come from rctophobby.com, you can click to find what you want.
