How To Make A Toy Plane

We have created few toy flying machines or toy planes. Rubber band power toy plane , paper air plane , radio controlled toy plane and CESSNA R/C toy planes are our previous projects. Today I am going to discuss with you how to make a toy bird and how can fly same as a bird. If you search something about the history of a air plane you can see that air plane researches are heavily influence by the research based on "how birds are flying". Initially people think how bird are flying?, Why some bird can not flying?, some bird are very small but they can fly quickly and some bird very large but they can fly long hours without any difficulties. These questions influence people on different flying machines. Nowadays we have thousands of different kinds of flying machines varying from air-balloons to space shuttles. Tim Bird is very famous flying bird  toy, many people around the world used to play with it. Specially Chinese people create very nice flying birds (according to my...

We have already discussed about major components of Radio controlled plane and  have build Hanger 9 - Cessna 40 ARF plane . Today I am going to introduce another RC plance from Cessana series. Cessna 182 Pro Deluxe Electric RTF RC Plane is also little similar to Hanger 9 Cessna 40 ARF . If you try my previous project you don't find much difficulties to try this project. The New Cessna 182 Pro Deluxe Electric Remote Controlled Airplane has several performance enhancements over the regular version. The Himag motor provides 40% more power than a standard speed 480. The Cessna Pro ships with a 2200 mah Lipoly 7.4 volt that provides over 20 minutes of run time!! A 2.4 GHZ DSM radio for glitch free flying with a range of up to 5500 feet. Now includes a new wing with 2 aileron servos (1 for each aileron) for more precise control and quicker response time. This plane pack comes as RTF in that it comes with everything you need including complete plane parts, motors, glue, FMS fligh...

In previous section we discussed about major components of radio controlled airplane. In this article will look at further details about Hanger 9 - Cessna 40 ARF, Value Series radio controlled airplane and how each of these components are fixed and controlled. In previous article I mentioned that we need few components to make a airplane. First we need to have structure of the plane, wings and tail. Then we need to have a propeller for your airplane and engine/motor to give power to the propeller. Finally you need to have a mechanisum to control your airplane. First I am going to discuss how to you can build structure of your airplane. Detail description of each component as follows: Center Wing Tape Center Wing Tape is used to fix wings with the body of airplane. You don't need to use this tape always, any light weight tape can be use for this. Center Wing Tape: Cessna 40 ARF Value

We discussed about    How to make a paper airplane  and  Rubber band powerd toy plane  projects that you can try on and get an idea about how to flying an airplane. But those projects are very simple and used only very basics of flying machines. You can go further and build advance flying machines or toy airplanes. From here onward I will discuss on those topics. As a begining we will look at how to make a radio controller toy plane.  When you build your own plane it is very important to think about how you are going to control that plane while its moving. Not like automobiles; planes or flying machines should have better controlling when it take off, landing and flying. When any machine moving through or on air, its movement is totally depend on how the air behave and how it changes. So, to maintain stability of your airplane, you should control it properly. We can remotely control your airplane and radio frequency can be easily used to transfer your...

Paper airplane ( Klutz Book of Paper Airplanes ) are very quick method of making toy airplane for kids. There are different kind of paper airplanes design available for you to try and test. Most of the paper airplane designs are very simple and anyone can make them and have a fun. I am planing to discuss few those designs here and with the minimum effort you can try them. For these plane designs, please select very light weight papers so that your plane will fly very smoothly. Kids' Paper Airplane Book , The World Record Paper Airplane Book , Stationery Flight: Extraordinary Paper Airplanes , Alex Toys Fly'em High, Fly'em Fast Fold'n Fly Kit-Makes 18 Airplanes , Zoom! (reissue): The Complete Paper Airplane Kit (Trend Friends) , Best Ever Paper Airplanes  are good reference for more paper airplane designs. You only need to have an A4 paper to make this paper airplane. Then you need to follow nine steps to make this plane. Please refer the figure. Figure 1 How to ...

As a simple start let’s make a rubber band powered toy plane as our first project. This is a very simple design which will guide you basic concept of flying machines or airplane. Before move into implementation of toy plane let’s try to understand the concept behind the flying. People have used different mechanism to fly and those are having their own advantages and disadvantages. This article explains in details different mechanism used and how they look likes. As you might already know, flying mean float on the air while moving forward or backward. Basically flying machines not take backward movement whereas by turning it can change the direction easily. To float on the air it should have some force against the gravitational forces or simply weight of the airplane. How we generate this lifting force, if you can find a mechanism to generate this force you can float on the air. Concept of Flying Figure 1.1: Air flow pattern of airplane wing

Before go into more details on how to make a toy plane, it is important to have a look at on how the history of airplanes changed. Having understanding of the variation of the development of the airplane you can easily understand the flying concepts. It is not very accurate if I said that “Wright brothers” made first flying machine. Before that various individuals had tried to fly using various methods. The Kite, Hot Air Balloons , Dirigible Airship ( Airships: Dirigibles and Blimps ), Airplane and Biplane ( 1/48 Stearman PT17 Bi-plane , Mic-O-Mic Bi-Plane ) were developed and tested as flying mechanisms. The history of a Kite goes to around 500 BC and possible earlier. This mean to say that people have been flying kites for at least 2500 years. This first step was a great milestone in development of flying machines. Even though people have a doubt about the inventor of a kite, western tradition gives credit to a Greek scientist name “Archytas” of Tarentum as the inventor of t...

It is indeed pleasure to see you on my blog posts with ambition to make your own toy plane. Is it really difficult to make your own plane? No. I don’t think so. If you know the theory behind how to fly, you will feel that flying is really easy. Yes it is not difficult but you need to have proper control of the mechanism. In this blog site I will explain you the secret behind the flying, how to make your own toy plane and facts that you need to consider when you go for advance flying machines. Making your own toy plane is really fun and your kids might more happier to play with a toy plane that is handicraft by you. Most importantly once you try with your first toy plane, you can experiment and make different kind of toy planes and even you might be able to find good market for your toy plane. Here are few toy planes available in the market and have a look at on them to get better idea about how toy plane is about. Then move into your own plane design with me. Fisher Price - Littl...
