Why a new model airplane design?


Video and narration by Bill Kuhl.
Other designs either are poor flyers or are highly complex to build requiring a great deal of skill, time and special tools and apparatus.

Model Airplane Design Objectives

Increase accessibility of model aviation to children and adults by creating simple designs that fly well, are made from common materials and are easy to build.

Provide mentorship and support to model airplane novices, workshop facilitators, school teachers, Cubs, Scouts, flying clubs, model airplane clubs and other organizations.
