This project evaluates the aerodynamic performance of a custom 3D-printable FPV RC plane. The design features a twin-boom H-tail configuration with a pusher motor setup, optimized for stable FPV flight and easy manufacturing. The main wing utilizes a Clark Y airfoil (900mm wingspan, 170mm chord) to generate efficient lift, while the H-tail features a custom symmetric profile (280mm span) to minimize drag and ensure precise pitch and yaw authority. Simulation Goals: Analyze the overall Lift-to-Drag ratio of the current geometry. Visualize the airflow and wake turbulence generated by the central pod (pusher configuration) and the twin-boom supports. Validate the aerodynamic efficiency of the main surfaces before proceeding with physical 3D printing and hardware assembly. Key Specifications: Wingspan: 900 mm Main Airfoil: Clark Y Tail Configuration: H-Tail (Twin-Boom) with symmetric profile Manufacturing: Designed for FDM 3D Printing
