Aim :- To build a RC(Remote Controlled) Canard
Plane.
What is canard plane?
Canard is an airframe configuration of fixed wing aircraft in which the forward surface is smaller than the rearward, the former being known as the "canard", while the latter is the main wing. In contrast a conventional aircraft has a small horizontal stabilizer behind the main wing.Canard designs fall into two main classes:-
a) Lifting canard:- In this configuration, the weight of the aircraft is shared between the main wing and the canard wing
b) Control canard:- most of the weight of the aircraft is carried by the main wing and the canard wing is used primarily for longitudinal control during maneuvering. The pros and cons of the canard versus conventional configurations are numerous and complex, and it is impossible to say which is superior without considering a specific design application.
