The modular RC model airplane is a collection of parts and sections for a homemade remote controlled model aircraft. It is for people that want to build their own experimental RC airplane, printing all essential parts on a 3D printer. It is NOT a completely printed RC model. The parts released are mainly for the skeleton of the plane, which needs to be covered with iron-on foil (e.g. Ora light material). In addition to the printed parts you will need 8x8mm square spares for the wings, some 3×0.5mm carbon fiber rods for the edges of the wings and a handful of 5x5mm wooden strips for the fuselage and the horizontal stabilizer.
This publication here is about the tail section of the plane, which consists of the bar that connects the tail section to the fuselage, the vertical stabilizer, the horizontal stabilizer, the servo mounts, the rudder and the elevator. Together these parts form the complete tail section.
As I am really dissatisfied with the quality of the latest “updates” to the Thingiverse user interface, I have decide to publish the majority of my designs from now on at prusaprinters.org. This is why you find only one .stl file here at Thingiverse. You are more than welcome to get all the parts for free at prusaprinter.org (no login required).

As soon as Thingiverse manages to get the quality issues under control, I will be glad to upload here again.
