Designing, Building and Flying RC Airplanes

 

THIS IS WHAT IT IS ALL ABOUT-MY FAIREY FANTOME, ON FLY-BY. (Photo by Doug Martin)


The world of RC airplanes covers a huge field, from the smallest indoor RC aircraft to giant scale model airplanes and RC jet planes.

Many people are intrigued with the concept of flying an RC model plane but premature and maybe fatal (at least for the model!) crashes, soon lead them to think that learning to fly RC, is very difficult and only possible for a handful of experts.

THIS IS NOT SO!

We will show you, how to start in this wonderful hobby, with every chance of initial success and continue with you along the road to your own model aviation Valhalla-what ever that maybe!

I, personally love all types of scale models and if it flies, in a realistic manner, then all the better! However, you can find much information, on this site, on many classes of models.

If your preference, is to buy a completely ready to fly rc airplane, then you can find valuable information, on these pages, that will assist you, in reaching that first flight, with a minimum of fuss.

If you would like to design and draw your own scale model, from scratch, then we are here, to hold your hand from the start, to that nerve shattering first flight!
 

Who I am

I have been building and flying model aircraft for a long time.

I am now retired, but I began my love for model airplanes, in the UK, when I was a young teenager.

My first efforts, were with control line models (or U-control, as it is known in North America). It was not until we immigrated to Canada, in the mid sixties, that I became involved in radio control.

In those days, it was something of a miracle, to get a flight, without some kind of "glitch". What a contrast to today's radios-literally "plug and play".

The early radios, I used (and sometimes built myself), were known as "Galloping Ghost"-if you know what that is, then be careful, you may be revealing your age!

Today I enjoy designing, building and flying scale RC models, usually of the 1/5 or 1/4 scale size. Some of these plans will be made available from this web site.

Building rc airplane kits.Tips gleaned from many years of experience,will ensure your success!

 Rc model airplanes,how to assemble them from an A-R-F kit.
Rc model airplanes that are assembled from an Almost-Ready-to-Fly (A-R-F) kit,require accurate building.Lots of tips and techniques, ensure your success.

RC Model Airplane Engines.
The types of rc model airplane engines available,there applications and hints and tips on their choice, use,installation and maintenance.

Remote Control Airplane Plans of Scale aircraft.
Remote control airplane plans of scale aircraft and descriptions of how they were designed, built and flown.Many hints and tips that can help you and your project.

The RC Flight Simulator and Learning to fly RC.
The RC Flight Simulator is the painless method of learning to fly RC! It is very easy to turn your model into matchsticks but training on a sym. can improve your skills rapidly.

RC Jets
RC jets are available as true turbines or ducted fans.The fans can be glow powered or electric.Here is all the information on this exciting technology.

RC Hobby Stores
RC hobby stores have evolved over the years. Many have disapeared but some really great ones are still with us. Both REAL and on-line stores are listed and discussed.

RC Sailplanes
RC sailplanes are available in many types,generally suited to the type of flying site available.

Electric RC Airplanes.
Electric RC Airplanes are now available in all types and sizes. Here we desrcibe many of the different models available and also help you in selecting the components required for a successful model.
