The school was given a task to develop projects. I decided to make a drone. This is his approximate 3D model. Vtol opens the cargo hatch. I hope you enjoy it.

@RejsDen awesome! I used to build RC models a few years ago too. I’ll go check out the new version as well
@Mustang51 I made and tested three cardboard models on a 1-to-1 scale, two plastic models on a 1-to-10 scale. All five had different wing layout and even engine layout. In the end, I stopped at this option as the most profitable in all respects. By the way, I have already posted a more detailed model.
@RejsDen I mean I’m not wrong but it varies on a case by case basis. It depends I on how heavy the real thing is and it’s weight distribution. It was just something to look out for. Also don’t model in real life what you make in SP because it’s physics sadly don’t really come close hahaha. Have you test flown your cardboard model yet?
@Mustang51 You were wrong about the wing. I already made cardboard models with a weight-and-size layout of the engine compartment, after which I changed the location of the wing. In addition, in this model, I have already taken into account the battery and weight of the transmitter, adding fuel and cargo.
Oh.@RejsDen
Awesome! I can’t wait to see that. On another note, unless you have already built the real model, I would put the wings more forward, especially since the battery will be attached more to the front. It will be better balanced that way in my opinion. Also when you do make it please post pictures on the forums!
@Planebuilder09 This model is designed to test the characteristics of a real project. Acceleration according to my calculations will be 5-7 meters with its own length of 90 cm
@XxMegamonsterxX This model is designed to test the characteristics of a real project, and for a radio-controlled aircraft 150 km / h is good enough
@Mustang51 I will definitely Supplement it with electronics, perhaps it can be pulled out. I think in a couple of days I will publish.
Very cool!! I also used to make homemade RC planes for middle and high school projects. Those were fun times. I must say though that I was hoping for a battery and some cables when the front opens hahaha
Quite slow.
You need a really long runway to take off but i like the design and the custom landing gear
