RC Model Types and Calculation Tools

Pick the model you run and jump straight to the calculators built for its setup values.

  • RC CarsSpeed and gearing work dominate car setups: theoretical top speed, final drive ratio, tire diameter changes and scale conversions.Key values: Motor KV, gearing, tire size, scaleRC Car Calculators
  • RC BoatsBoat setups revolve around propeller pitch speed, runtime planning and power-to-weight comparisons on paper.Key values: Propeller RPM, pitch, battery runtimeRC Boat Calculators
  • RC AirplanesAirplane setups start with theoretical airspeed and move into wing loading, center of gravity and thrust-to-weight checks.Key values: Pitch speed, wing loading, CGRC Airplane Calculators
  • RC HelicoptersHelicopter work centers on theoretical head speed: motor KV and voltage divided by the total drivetrain reduction.Key values: Motor KV, voltage, gear reductionRC Helicopter Calculators
  • RC DronesDrone builds are planned around estimated flight time and thrust-to-weight ratios for the whole multirotor.Key values: Battery capacity, thrust, weightDrone Calculators
