Build a Real RC Foam Plane

Workshop by Darren Casey

Attendees will construct a real RC plane (like this one https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_mJphDl7z5A) including laser cut motor mounts. We will go through the building process, adding the electronics and setting up of the control surfaces. This includes setting up the servos, mounting the horns correctly along hinge lines, and using a hot glue gun. At the end, attendees will have a real RC plane they take home and paint, all they need do is connect a receiver and battery and fly. They will receive an electronic copy of the plans and details to make these at home including where to buy all the parts. They will also get to keep the 3d printed parts that help when building. The workshop/kit is suitable for existing RC flyers, makers who want to understand how foam aircraft are built, or beginners who are interested in joining a club and learning to fly.

Attending this workshop will cost £25
Suitable age range 12+
