  2. Glow plug (model engine) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glow_plug_(model_engine)

    A glow plug engine, or glow engine, is a type of small internal combustion engine [1] typically used in model aircraft, model cars and similar applications. The ignition is accomplished by a combination of heating from compression, heating from a glow plug and the catalytic effect of the platinum within the glow plug on the methanol within the ...

  3. Radio-controlled aircraft - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio-controlled_aircraft

    Various scale sizes of RC scale aircraft have been built in the decades since modern digital-proportional, miniaturized RC gear came on the market in the 1960s, and everything from indoor-flyable electric powered RC Scale models, to "giant scale" RC Scale models, in scale size ranges that usually run from 20% to 25%, and upwards to 30 to 50% ...

  4. Model engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Model_engine

    Four-stroke model engines have been made in sizes as small as 0.20 in3 (3.3 cc) for the smallest single-cylinder models, all the way up to 3.05 in3 (50 cc) for the largest size for single-cylinder units, with twin- and multi-cylinder engines on the market being as small as 10 cc for opposed-cylinder twins, while going somewhat larger in size ...

  5. 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.

  6. Jetex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jetex

    In the latter half of the 1990s, the company introduced their own 'Z' series motors, corresponding to the original Jetex 35, 50 and 100. From August 1995 Jet-X motors, fuel and fuse were commercially imported into the US. Flying Models told its readers that "safe and viable rocket power for model airplanes is back". [7]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cox_Models

    In the 1950s and 1960s until recently, Cox has produced a line of hobby-oriented models of cars, airplanes, and other vehicles. The most noted are the .049 cubic-inch displacement glow fuel powered models, controlled by line (Control Line) or by radio (Radio Control). AMC Matador.049 engine police car from the TV series Adam-12; T-28 Trojan ...

  8. Nitro engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitro_engine

    Nitro engines for models can turn in excess of 50,000 RPM. Typical operating rpm for sport model aircraft engines is 10,000–14,000 RPM. For radio control (RC) boats and ducted fan aircraft engines, 20,000–25,000 is the usual range, and for cars RPM in the range of 25,000–37,000 is common. With this much movement, a lot of frictional heat ...

  9. Radio-controlled car - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio-controlled_car

    The Academy of Model Aeronautics (AMA), recognized and documented early radio-controlled model aircraft as having been developed in the 1930s. However, radio-controlled model cars have only been documented more recently. There may have been earlier model car hobbyists, inspired by RC airplanes, tinkering with RC cars but not documented.
