RC Plane Build


The FT Mini Scout is a small, paper-enforced foam RC plane that's available for purchase through an internet group called Flite Test. They provide step by step videos showing how to build their planes such as the one shown below that I used to build my FT Mini Scout.

Here is my final product


Here are some selected photos from the build process
