This study presents the design and programming of a modern new class of radio-controlled electric vertical takeoff and landing (E-VTOL) aircraft using lightweight polylactic acid (LW-PLA). Utilizing the LW-PLA cork foam material is crucial to lowering the aircraft's total weight and improving its mechanical characteristics at the same time. The type of LW-PLA utilized in this study was specific, and its fabrication process was made possible by a Creality Cr 10s pro-3D printer. In this study, a lightweight polylactic acid was used to demonstrate the design of an electric vertical takeoff and landing (E-VTOL) aircraft (LW-PLA). It is essential to use the LW-PLA cork foam material to reduce the overall weight of the airplane and enhance its mechanical properties simultaneously. The particular kind of LW-PLA used in this model was manufactured using a Creality Cr 10s pro-3D printer. Solid Work version 2021 was utilized in the development of the mathematical model. Since radio-controlled aircraft capable of vertical takeoff and landing can carry out both tasks, the goal of this study is to find the best way to utilize the features that both airplanes and drones have in common. Consequently, the suggested model represents a sophisticated enhancement of the aerodynamic characteristics of the many types of radio control aircraft that are capable of performing vertical takeoffs and landings
