The Fish: A Scratch Built Slow-Fly RC Plane

The Fish is a plane I designed in early Spring to teach members of my high school Aviation Club to fly. It is built out of two sheets of Dollar Tree Foamboard. Having taught several new pilots with this aircraft, I can say with confidence that the plane is very easy to fly. Surprisingly, it's also fun for more experienced guys because it can be made to fly in very small spaces and through tight obstacles. I have on heli friend who can hover it no problem.
