(beginner in aeromodelling)

actually i wanted to make a rc plane as begginer i made a cardboard rc plane but it got really heavy n got failed in lifting.so after that i started to find out some slow stick type of plane which is quite light but getting their parts was difficult in our city. after that i decided to make a plane with fuselage as pvc pipe instead of slow stick and it get easy to build than foam board and thermacoal planes. We had a 3d printer in our collage n old radio control n motors. this pvc pipe can be assembled n disassembled too. so begginer can also learn assembling the rc plane
