First time trying PlaneMaker?

If you are a first timer to PlaneMaker and want to try your hand at building an aircraft, then our Laminar X-1 Lite tutorial is made just for you. In this tutorial, you'll learn how to navigate your way around PlaneMaker, create wings, a fuselage, landing gear, set up your engine and flight controls and attach 3D models to make it look good! When done, you can fly it around in X-Plane and tweak and experiment to learn more about aircraft modeling. You don't even need to own X-Plane to try it, you can download and use PlaneMaker in the demo version of X-Plane too!
