Use a comprehensive wind tunnel simulation to help you understand how
airfoils develop lift, how shape effects performance, and to investigate airfoil
shapes to use for your own model aircraft designs to build and fly!

Quickly learn many science principles Easily design aircraft 3D-Print designs

Program includes a comprehensive wind tunnel simulation to investigate airfoil shapes

The project section is intuitive and easy to use with simple diagnostics to help you
design. Use it to rapidly prototype and optimize your aircraft before you build them
off-line. View your design any time using Plan or 3-D viewing with adjustable angles.

The aircraft design section is intuitive and easy to use with simple diagonostics

For those with 3D printers the latest version includes the option to generate 3D solid
files (.stl) of computer designs for use with printers. Guides are included to aid in
coming up with aircraft that can readily be 3D printed. Simply print out the
components and glue them together to construct great gliders and aircraft.

Aircraft designs can be 3D printed out using plastic
