Description
Welcome! Tell us about your SimpleFlyer. What are "Simpleflyers"? Simpleflyers are small, simple, easy to build and fun to fly model airplanes. They are made from stuff and tools that can be found at home; or they can be made from model kits and materials from the hobby shop; or they can be small gliders or rubber powered models that are bought over the counter. They can be FF, RTP, CL,RC and be powered by a variety of sources. Simpleflyers can be flown in your backyard, the neighborhood schoolyard or green space, or even in your home. The bottom line is simplicity. Building and flying models should be fun! Open to modelers of all ages.
