RC Plane Build

● IN PROGRESS

The Challenge

After the glider proved I could get a craft airborne, the next step was a powered fixed-wing plane built from scratch — with a proper motor, ESC, and radio receiver working together.

The Build

I designed the airframe for a stable, high-wing trainer layout, selected a brushless motor and matched prop for the expected weight, and wired up the ESC and receiver. Flight testing is iterative: each session reveals a trim or balance issue to correct.

Skills Demonstrated

RC electronics integration, brushless motor systems, radio control setup, and iterative flight-test debugging.
