In this video, I’m building my very first VTOL tricopter — a Vertical Takeoff and Landing aircraft.
This DIY RC plane project includes 3D-printed parts, electronics, flight testing, and more.
This is not my own design, but I had learned to assemble it from scratch.
From many crashes to a final successful flight!
If you enjoy RC builds, DIY aircraft, or just want to see something crash safely, you’ll enjoy this one.
Special thanks to:
My teacher - Linrong Wen, kaibo Ye

I do all the recording and editing myself, without anyone's help, so the video and picture quality might be a bit low in terms of definition.😅
