get together a couple hundred dollars or maybe even thousands I think if u want something really good and buy some sort of video game physics wire thengy creator to make the plane, then after a couple hours I am guessing or maybe a couple of days, which it would take me to make an awsome plane with software like that you have to convert the format I think to make it compatible with AFPD.

I am no expert but that is the gist of what you would have to do I think.

It aint that hard.

Use a freeware graphics program, like Metasoquia. Create all the parts of your model.

Send an email to IPACS reuqestiong the metasoquia file converter, to .obj file. Convert the files, fill in the rest such as .tmd file etc etc and your done.

I made that sound far too easy, but the building is the hard part.
