RC-Airplanes

On the following pages you can browse some of the recent model aircraft I designed and built.

  • Planke1 – my first flying wing glider, a simple plank with a Fauvel airfoil
  • Planke2 – the next step in the evolution of my planks
  • Planke3 – the current project, a 2m flying wing glider in plank design with brushless motor

I’m using a simple vertical tube pulling colored water from a bottle to measure the pressure difference:

With 0.3 bar difference I get really good results:
