This is my first time on FSDS v.2 and I am trying to design my aircraft I designed myself, homebuilt. I would like any and or alot of advise on what I need to get started and what I need to do to start off. I like easy ways and not the hard ways arounds stuff. Thank you very much!    ~Brett

Do the tutorials first, get the initial feel for the program.  If you don't have the "working basics"  then something like "rotate axis only -45 in x, select points, scale .75 in y, reset part axis rotation" won't make sense.

Do you have a sketch - 3 view of your homebuilt?

What special "features" does it have?

I've been looking at doing a "Stupid Idiot's Guide to FSDS2" and a homebuilt sounds interesting.
