RE: First 3D, your recommendation?
Hmm... I think that is a bit beyond my level. This plane is going to be beaten up a lot so I like the idea of the profile flyer so I can cut new pieces as needed. I downloaded the Ultimate biplane plans and I'm going to see if the CAD lab at the school I work at can print it out for me.
I'm a bit concerned about getting the ailerons and all tuned up. I'd rather have a step-by-step set of instructions for making this. Anyone know where to find a more comprehensive guide to making a profile plane? That would be worth paying for. I can't see paying for just a template though.
