RC Modeling

A few months ago, I was looking for plans for a small electric aerobatic plane and stumbled upon Flymodels.co.uk. There, a Brit by the name of Philip Rawson described a speed 400 electric aerobat he'd designed that looked and sounded like just the ticket. He provides a PDF version of plans for download and a series of photos and description for some of the construction details, but other than that, you're on your own. Construction looked straightforward enough, so I decided to give it a try. If you're not reasonably comfortable with scratch-building techniques and meager instructions, I suggest perhaps trying something else first. However, this is a fun build for someone with at least some experience.
