ABOUT
Martyn Pressnell distils decades of aerodynamic study into a practical guide tailored specifically for model aircraft builders.
He explains how aerofoils work at the low Reynolds numbers typical of models, clarifying lift, drag, camber, thickness, and pitching behaviour in terms that directly inform design choices. Pressnell compares families of sections, showing how subtle changes influence stability, climb, glide, and overall efficiency.
Illustrated throughout with monochrome images, drawings and diagrams.
