    Great timing, as my son and I just built our first RC plane, the Towel. Can’t wait to learn more about building and flying.

    Are you planning on a followup video. It seem like there are a lot of questions that I have seen in youtube comments.

    Here I’ll add one. Why no rudder in the design? The parts list includes 4 servos but you didn’t design the plane with a rudder. I’m certain its a design/trainer issue but would like to know why.
