Model Airplane
I need to build a model airplane for physics, where can i find plans that show me how to build it?
i need plans that show me EXACTLY step by step, directions and dimentions, how to build a model airplane. (NO KIT) HELPPPPPP PLEASE!!
Happy to help.
First, you didn't say what kind of model airplane you hafta build, but it sounds like it might need to fly and that this will be your first try. No problemo. If you can edit your question and add s'more details, we can give you a little better answer.
But, for now, let's start simple. If it can be a paper airplane, there are some pretty realistic ones you can make with your computer printer, scissors and white glue. (They aren't the kind that boys make and throw in class when the teacher isn't looking.) Take a look at these sites for those:
http://www.airplane-collectible-best-net-resource.com/paper-airplane-model.html
http://zovirl.com/2008/11/20/laminated-paper-airplane-g-4/
If it doesn't need to fly, try here:
http://www.fiddlersgreen.net/
If you need something that can fly pretty well, there are some cool "profile" model plans that are both easy to build and inexpensive. A profile model just has a flat, side profile fuselage. The first link is for paper plans that are realistically colored. You cut them out, paste them to thin foam sheets like foam core poster board, cut them out with a sharp point knife and glue 'em together with white glue. The plans are for radio control electric motor powered models, but you can build them as gliders. Where the plans call for graphite spars, you can substitute spruce or basswood from your hobby or craft store. MUCH cheaper. Best foam is called Depron from hobby shops

You could assemble with a hot glue gun, but it tends to leave little strings of glue all over.
Start with a balance point about 1/4 of the way back from the leading edge of the wing. If you have to put a lot of clay on the nose to balance, you can replace some of it with a small nail or two poked in the nose. Then a little clay should do.
Let us know if you need a full fuselage and I'll edit the answer with more plans.
Have fun!

The Airplane is packed with high-tech electronics and engineering innovation yet is quite easy to assemble and to get into the air. The Airplane is a great all-around R/C plane that is fun to use by new flyers as well as experts alike. Rechargeable battery included. Features Motor-driven remote-controlled glider features a shock-resisting plane nose design made by plastic injection molding process.
