A model airplane fuselage is molded of rigid foam so that a rudder-mount at the rear of the fuselage is made up of alternating projections defining a rudder slot, some of the projections being undercut for locking the rudder in place by engaging rudder projections. A slot for a wing is flared at the outer ends to allow wedges to be pressed beneath the wing to form a dihedral configuration.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION A model airplane fuselage is formed so that a vertical rudder slot is created by a linear series of vertical projections rising from the rear top surface of the fuselage.
The projections are in a non-overlapping arrangement as viewed from the side of the fuselage.
The projections have vertical wall surfaces on opposite sides of the centerline of the rear top surface spaced from the centerline to define the rudder slot.
Some of the projections have undercut portions for capturing edge projections of the rudder to lock it in place.
A wing slot extending horizontally through the fuselage, perpendicularly to the major axis, has an upper surface with two portions symmetrically inclining upward from the center of the slot.
Blocks may be inserted under a wing seated in the slot to create a dihedral wing.
Fin-like projections extending along a major portion of the length of the fuselage at its top and bottom may, in a series mold, be connected to the corresponding projections of other fuselage bodies.
