Basic Model Airplane Proportions (BMAP) is designed to calculate the data input for Engine CID, Model Weight, Wing Area, Wing Loading, Power Loading, Wing Root Chord, Wing Tip Chord, and Wing Span into measurements needed for model fabrication. All the above can be calculated based on related data entered or you can enter your own. Default values for the above are also available for various engine sizes. Calculations: Mean Aerodynamic Chord (MAC) Aspect Ratio (AR) Taper Ratio (TR) 15% Forward Center of Gravity (FWD CG) 25% Center of Gravity (CG) 30% AFT Center of Gravity (AFT CG) 35% Neutral Point (NP) Distance from CG for Propeller, 25% MAC, and 25% Horizontal Stabilizer MAC MAC distance from Root Chord Wing Dihedral Wing Position: High, Middle, Low Standard and Strip Aileron Measurements
Horizontal Stabilizer and Elevator Area Vertical Stabilizer and Rudder Area (with or without ailerons) Other associated programs available are Aircraft Scale Calculator (ASC) and Model Airplane Weight & Balance (MAWB) These programs are a must have for the model airplane builder.

Aircraft Scale Conversion Aircraft Scale Conversion - Converts English or Metric data entered for a Model Airplane or Aircraft. (wing span, wing area, fuselage length, empty weight, loaded weight, gross weight, horsepower, cruise speed, and max speed) This information is then calculated to the scale you entered along with a calculated wing loading & power loading
Model Airplane Weight & Balance Model Airplane Weight & Balance - Calculates Center of Gravity (CG) based on model weight + component weights and component distance from Datum (ARM). 20 different component weights can be entered as pounds, ounces, kilograms, or grams and component Arm data can be in feet, inches, meters, or centimeters
Wing Calculator Calculates wing balance point, mean areodynamic chord (MAC) & its location from root chord, wing sweep (+ or -) distance from MAC leading edge, wing area, and aspect ratio
XY Scale XY Scale is a program that can be used to calculate a new scale and a new size of any item by resizing the heigth and width. It can also be used to determine the amount of ingredients needed for a larger or smaller receipe. Shoppers can use XY Scale to determine discounts on items to calculate the best price to pay
Metric Scale Airplane Calculator Metric Scale Airplane Calculator - Scales data from the database to meters or centimeters and calculates wing and power loadings. User can update database and enter desired scale. Modelers will find this to be a handy tool for designing their favorite aircraft. References: 1. Ernest G. Stout.
