A radio controlled plane is a small flying machine i.e. controlled by an person on the ground using a hand held remote controller (transmitter). The airplane is controlled by using a transmitter communicating with a receiver sending signals to servos which are mounted on the plane. The aerodynamics governing these airplane is the same as those large aircrafts. The plane considered in this study was designed to have sufficient lift and drag parameters . This was achieved by choosing the ideal values of elevator, fuselage ,wingspan length, rudder dimensions and the all up weight determined by a series of design analysis. The stability of plane parameter was determine by using XFLR-5. The lifting line theory approach was used in XFLR-5.
