I've always wanted to read a book that answered that question. A book that takes me by the hand and shows me how it's really done. One that tells me not just the what and the how, but also the all important why. Since nobody had ever written such a book, I decided I had to do it myself. This is that book.
Experience firsthand the joys of building and flying your very own model airplane design. Put into practice the lessons from my previous book, RCadvisor's Model Airplane Design Made Easy. Follow along as we design, build, and fly a modern radio-controlled model airplane.

Design Process
The book starts by describing the goals and the long prototyping process that led to the final design. Along the way you get to see firsthand the challenges that creating an innovative design presents. Learn the reasoning behind all the decisions that led to this unique design. Everything is explained without using equations!
A stand-alone book, it is complemented nicely by RCadvisor's online model airplane calculator and my first model airplane design book. Picking up where that book left off, it takes a very pragmatic approach to the entire design process.
