RC Plane Calculator: Wing Loading, Stall Speed, CG & Tail Volume
Calculate RC wing area, loading, stall speed, MAC and CG. Compare tail volume and electric power targets, with a planform drawing and a separate flying-wing CG rule.
Calculators by WiredWhite engineers: inputs, formulas you can read, results, charts and drawings, checked against reference cases. They run in your browser.
Calculate RC wing area, loading, stall speed, MAC and CG. Compare tail volume and electric power targets, with a planform drawing and a separate flying-wing CG rule.
Compare DOL, star-delta, soft-starter and autotransformer starts. Estimate motor current, torque, acceleration time and supply dip, then check feeder drop and overload settings.
Calculate bolt circle hole coordinates and adjacent chord spacing from PCD, hole count and start orientation. Includes a numbered flange drawing, centre offsets and clockwise or counterclockwise numbering.
Calculate balanced three-phase kW, kVA and amps, convert motor hp, and solve unbalanced star or delta loads with neutral-current phasors and animated waveforms.
Calculate bend allowance, bend deduction and flat length for up to four bends. Compare formed and flat views, edit K-factor, and estimate air-bending force and minimum flange.
Check fillet weld throat stress, required leg size and weld group torsion under static loads. Includes elastic bending, AISC LRFD/ASD strength and size limits.
Calculate pulley ratio and RPM, belt length, adjusted centre distance, wrap, belt count and static shaft pull. Compare fan performance after a pulley change.
Calculate lathe or mill RPM, feed, metal removal, cutting power and torque. Compare machine limits using HSS/carbide starting speeds and chip-thickness-corrected cutting force.
Match a PSC motor run capacitor or estimate its 90° current-split target from winding impedances. Compare µF, AC voltage ratings and animated winding-current phasors.
Size a hydraulic power pack from pump displacement, pressure and cylinder geometry. Calculate push/pull force, speed, motor demand, reservoir volume, cooling duty and rod buckling.
Compare printed shells and infill for load, stiffness and material use. Screening loads include a deflection limit; published benchmarks show where the model overpredicts.
Decode bearing numbers, bore sizes and suffixes. Calculate equivalent load, L10 life and the dynamic rating needed for a target life using your maker’s C rating.
Calculate concrete volume, whole bags, ready-mix orders and rebar grids. Estimate daily strength gain at the curing temperature and dates for your strength targets.
Estimate wind pressure, face force and post-base overturning moment for signs, solid or porous fences and tilted solar mounts, with an editable embedded-post soil check.
Estimate cement bags, sand, aggregate and free water for small nominal-mix concrete pours. Includes geometry, wastage, loose-volume recipes and metric/US results.
Calculate irregular land area from side lengths and internal diagonals using Heron's formula. See a to-scale plot, check an extra diagonal, and convert to metric, US and local units.
Size copper cables and DC fuses for inverters, solar battery circuits and car audio. Check voltage drop, thermal derating, fault interruption and alternator capacity.
Compare average end area and prismoidal earthwork volumes, include shrink and swell, and inspect a mass-haul diagram. A second mode estimates a building pad from a nine-point grid.
Calculate Euler buckling load, Johnson intermediate-column strength and effective length for four end conditions. Explore steel, aluminium and timber presets, eccentric loading and animated buckling modes.
Calculate circular curve elements, PC/PT chainages and peg tables by exact Rankine deflections, tangent offsets and long-chord offsets. Choose 20 m, 30 m or 100 ft stationing.
Trace slab, wall and beam loads through a house column grid. Estimate storey axial loads, short-column steel demand and footing area for preliminary planning.
Size a three-phase capacitor bank, compare star and delta capacitance, estimate tariff savings and screen resonance. Includes detuned reactors, power triangles and a motor no-load limit.
Simulate seven days of power cuts and charging. See whether your inverter or IPS battery still covers day 3, with charger limits, charge taper and lead-acid or LiFePOâ‚„ behaviour.
Size a portable power station from a timed load list. Check usable energy, startup surge, expansion batteries and wall, car or solar recharge limits.
