2. Radio-controlled aircraft - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio-controlled_aircraft

   3D flight is a type of flying in which model aircraft have a thrust-to-weight ratio of more than 1:1 (typically 1.5:1 or more), large control surfaces with extreme throws, low weight compared to other models of same size and relatively low wing loadings. Simply put, 3D flight is the art of flying a plane below its stall speed (the speed at ...

   Many notable individuals in the 1960s through the 1990s and beyond created the landscape of modern RC modeling. These included many starting their own companies. The families of many of these individuals lost interest in continuing these businesses. The incoming supply of ARF planes from overseas made it hard to sell kits requiring assembly.

   The challenge with Power Scale Soaring is to build a model as close to scale as possible whilst at the same time ensuring the model has good flying characteristics. Model EPP jet fighter slope soarers have become extremely popular, usually either 1950s and some 1960s designs e.g. the MiG-15 , the P-80 Shooting Star , and the F-86 Sabre , and ...

   1:10 scale radio-controlled car (Saab Sonett II)A radio-controlled model (or RC model) is a model that is steerable with the use of radio control (RC). All types of model vehicles have had RC systems installed in them, including ground vehicles, boats, planes, helicopters and even submarines and scale railway locomotives.

   For example, 1:48 scale is 1/4" to 1-foot (or 1" to 4 feet) and 1:72 is 1" to 6 feet, while in metric scales such as 1:100th, 1 centimeter equals 1 meter. 1:72 scale was introduced with Skybirds wood and metal model aircraft kits in 1932 and were followed closely by Frog, which used the same scale from 1936 with their "Frog Penguin" brand. 1:72 ...

9. RC flight simulator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RC_flight_simulator

   An RC flight simulator is a computer program that allows pilots of radio-controlled aircraft to practice on a computer, without the risk and expense of damaging a real model. Besides the obvious use of training beginners, they are also used for practising new aerobatics, evaluating a model before buying it, and to allow flight practice when ...
