2. Electronic speed control - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_speed_control

   An electronic speed control follows a speed reference signal (derived from a throttle lever, joystick, or other manual input) and varies the switching rate of a network of field effect transistors (FETs). [1] By adjusting the duty cycle or switching frequency of the transistors, the speed of the motor is changed. The rapid switching of the ...

3. Servo (radio control) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Servo_(radio_control)

   The fly-ball actuator was introduced to R/C modelling in 1951 by Brayton Paul, [5] and consisted of an electric motor and a centrifugal governor connected to a free-running axis that could, with the motor running, pull a rudder control rod by varying degrees. Used with a keyed radio system, this allowed some control over the rudder position by ...

4. Servo control - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Servo_control

   Servo and receiver connections A diagram showing typical PWM timing for a servomotor. Servo control is a method of controlling many types of RC/hobbyist servos by sending the servo a PWM (pulse-width modulation) signal, a series of repeating pulses of variable width where either the width of the pulse (most common modern hobby servos) or the duty cycle of a pulse train (less common today ...

5. Bruce Simpson (blogger) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bruce_Simpson_(blogger)

   Bruce Simpson runs two main YouTube channels: RCModelReviews and xjet.On these channels Bruce reviews new products, talks about news and provides an educational (and somewhat technical) insight to the world of all things RC with a focus on quadcopters, RC aircraft and RC gear, electronics and camera equipment.

6. Outrunner - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outrunner

   The stationary (stator) windings of an outrunner motor are excited by conventional DC brushless motor controllers. A direct current (switched on and off at high frequency for voltage modulation) is typically passed through three or more non-adjacent windings together, and the group so energized is alternated electronically based upon rotor position feedback.

7. Radio-controlled model - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio-controlled_model

   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.

8. Radio-controlled aircraft - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio-controlled_aircraft

   Very small ready to fly RC indoor or indoor/outdoor toy aircraft often have two speed controllers and no servos, in order to cut production costs and lower sale price. There can be one motor for propulsion and one for steering or twin motors with the sum controlling the speed and the difference controlling the turn (yaw).

9. Radio-controlled car - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio-controlled_car

   Radio-controlled cars, or RC cars for short, [1] are miniature vehicles (cars, vans, buses, buggies, etc.) controlled via radio.. Nitro powered models use glow plug engines, small internal combustion engines fuelled by a special mixture of nitromethane, methanol, and oil (in most cases a blend of castor oil and synthetic oil).
