In this study, lift force and drag force of a RC airplane was calculated using computational fluid dynamic (CFD) analysis. NACA 2412 airfoil was used for wing design. When the aircraft is moving into the air, it subjects to aerodynamic forces. These aerodynamic forces are the drag, lift, and thrust forces. Drag force produces a resistant to relative motion. Lift is the force that directly opposes the weight of an airplane and holds the airplane in the air. Thrust is generated by the engines of the aircraft through some kind of propulsion system. Drag and lift forces were investigated at maximum speed to represent the aerodynamic performance of a RC airplane
