Flying model aircraft is very interesting, but it is necessary to seriously consider, at least in the early years, and this site will give you the necessary advice, the plane was flying zone 1 or 2 channels, and this is the most simple of reinforced concrete aircraft can fly on the lack of experience.

On this page we will be talking about:

* Mass and balance
* Pre-flight inspection
* Test Glider
* Powered Flight
* Setting Machine
* Take-off
* Landing

According to the budget, and how seriously you want to get on the radio-controlled flying, you can buy a flight simulator practice of the Regional Council, but these are not necessary for a simple model airplane.

With or without one, find your local RC airplane club is a great concept, if you want to take a hobby, seriously studying and bigger and faster flying aircraft, particularly natural gas models.
We use the continuous growth of the club directory to find club in your area, there May be in homepage greater than you think!

Such organizations will give you all the information you need, including liability insurance requirements, this May will be mandatory, in many places.

It should be said at this stage, this page will simply provide a basic understanding of flying model airplanes is electric reinforced concrete and only one or two channels, such as parks leaflets types of aircraft. This site is not appropriate flight lessons, multi-channel reinforced concrete plane!
Flight model (especially natural gas) with three or more channels, the need for more training, education and / or in a simulator should be seriously considered. Again, your local club will be reinforced concrete aircraft more than happy to assist.

Simple leaflets is a large park on the radio-controlled flying, you can fly, they direct the box, does not have a lot of problems, even if you have never flown a plane before the Council.

But in the meantime, we must read the manufacturer’s instruction manual before you do anything!
The following information on this page should take only as a general rule of thumb - refers to the appropriate manuals, let you set up and, in particular aircraft, which is very important.

Weight and balance

If you buy a package of RTF and after that the producer instructions, weight and balance should be established, but it is always necessary to balance before any of the flight model aircraft, as the correct balance, will lead to a crash in the plane, immediately.

All of the flight model aircraft, as well as confused as they real, it has focus, (control) the impact of the plane’s balance and thus its flight characteristics.
It’s CG, as a general rule, it will be about 1 / 3 rd leads the way back from (in front) to the wing.

Test your balance aircraft, the tips of each index finger, each wingtip 1/3rd the way back. Gently lift model in order to balance the tip of your fingers.
If the balance is correct, the model should be level or with his nose shows a little down.
If the tail shows no downward fly, but! Instead, you must add weight to nose model. Modeling clay or fishing rod ideal. Add only enough to balance the right aircraft.

Pre-flight inspection

Pre-flight inspection is vital for any model of aircraft flight. It is obvious things, even if you miss too impatient to be a model in the air, usually as a mistake would lead to a collapse!

You must model outlined in the guide should be the pre-flight inspection, the specific needs of aircraft, but as a general check the basic criteria, including:

* Wing and secure
* The control of freedom of movement and the right
* Motor running properly
* Radio control equipment (battery) to determine

Test equipment worked properly, here is what you should do - switch on the transmitter and receiver, antenna, and shot completely collapsed, Walking distance from the regression model of 3-0 feet or so. As you walk, keep moving the rudder in accordance with the left and right and watch the rudder and aircraft.
If only a few metres feet and began rudders “seizure” or does not respond to the changes stick, does not fly. A battery of radio equipment, they must May be replaced.
If you are new, but the rudder is still not the appropriate response, and then other people May be flying model aircraft in the vicinity of their frequency. Again, do not fly In this case, as a result of interference in the May plane crash.

The Test Glide

Although not required, May want to test your model boat before the flight. The purpose of this is to determine the characteristics and its slide to know what I expect, if the engine work accidents.
Sliding test, is the best long-term grass-roots level, if possible - if something is wrong, then the model will have a soft landing.

This pre-flight checks, as a man, ready to open the first transmitter, receiver, and then switch to a model. Transmitting antenna is fully extended.

To ensure that all the correct answer to the management and control surfaces move in the real sense, it is to implement a mobile transmitter moves left, left rudder, and so on.

In the face of the plane level and facing the wind (important: the flight of aircraft was the Regional Council to do the best in the wind or the wind is not at all - if it is windy day, another!), Nježno Model launched from your hand. Do not throw is like lightning, but the company to promote a smooth all the needs.
Truly, this aircraft is on the level, or slightly downward adjustment when you start. If the motion on the progressive, May boxing and crash.

All is well, should be gently gliding to the ground after the smooth, even flight (use of the rudder control taxiing directions).

The powered flight

Assume that all is well with the model and radio control equipment, and May you carry out successfully test-fired sliding, you’re ready for their first powered flight!

There are two ways of launching the one hand, you can run, as mentioned above to test the slide, or can be downloaded from the earth.
We will focus on hand to run, because sometimes the only option with a number of reinforced concrete aircraft, which are covered by little, still a page.

Check complete with all the equipment and on the radio (do not forget that the receiver in the plane too - I saw the model aircraft fire, only to smash into the ground seconds later, because the operator only to the transmitter!) Fully extended launch Antennas and held demonstrations, face - to-face at the height of that level or slightly down and into the air.
Switch on the engine in full force and give the company a plane out of your hands to promote, but not too hard.

handlaunching your reinforced concrete aircraft

As soon as the left hand, hold the transmitter, both hands on the thumbs-up sticks.
Always in accordance with the transmitter, antenna above, shows at least 45 degrees - the biggest strength of the signal.

Important note: Use the paddle campaign began - for a fee is the biggest cause of the first flight accident!

After the flight, using the elevator control climbing - do not want to disappear into the clouds, and do not want too close to the ground, whether that.
A high level of security is on top of the tree height, that is to say, 40 feet or so.
When you solve this height, light aircraft and use its characteristics, not to remember the sharp turning point!
They do not respect the highest move jobs - to maintain the action, a soft, smooth and small.

Use common sense, do not fly close to a person or object, and maintain a model of a reasonable height and distance himself, but not too far away, you can not see properly - even though the radio control equipment have a range of several hundred feet, You do not need aircraft to fly far, will be too small to see to move.

Setting the machine

Investment leverage, transmitter’trimming ‘is a word used to describe the actions of the adjustment control of the aircraft while in flight, it flies in straight and level, in line with their own - or, at least, not as stable as possible any input, Since your thumb on the Texas branch.

May you find that the tendency in the model, one way or another, not management (especially the left), because from the moment of the engine.
Cleaning the use of small labels, a transmitter on the fine-tuned control, but this May varies from model to model.

After you’ve cut a label, so that model to fly on their own a few seconds, and then be adjusted accordingly. The goal is to model flying straight and level with Texas wood in their neutral stance.

The take-off

If you are one landing aircraft and equipment are flying from smooth, flat surface, such as the tarmac, you might prefer to take off from the land, not on the one hand launches.

With all the inspection is completed, the aircraft on the ground facing the wind, and immediately behind the stand. Search engines to full power and to model and speed up land along - May you need to use the rudder, the aircraft will be maintained in a straight line. As soon as possible will take off from the land and can fly around him.

If the aircraft flying in the area of grass, May aircraft will not be enough to accelerate to take off, so, you need to know on the one hand, it is not.

Landing

What’s that down!

May aircraft must land in the wind as long as possible, this is very important. A horizontal landing is acceptable, is sometimes inevitable, but never to try and land with the wind, that does not work!为什么”For the wind reduced the relative flying aircraft, thus reducing lift is to increase the speed and stall.

When you’re ready to land, the plane downwind legs safe distance in front of you, or right to left or left to right, back to the model of your time, this is your security side (not directly in front of you).
The model line up, like land, and lower energy consumption, or to shut down the engine, if not totally control the speed ratio. Keep a straight line, use the rudder fell on the model, a smooth way, while he hit the ground.

Using electric power peacefully and try to control the rate of decline in aircraft - with elevators, will obviously have the same effect, but it will also affect the speed, the plane that is too down, the lift will increase the speed of practice, and too much can lead to a lift cabin near the ground , If your speed flight is already low.

If at any time, you are not sure that your last resort, the engine back to full power to do so and the second round before lining, it was the second landing.
The final solution!

Above, a good approach, the establishment of a greaser;

Alternatively, you can go on, of course, have to ’straight in practice, if you’re still flying on your side - only aircraft in the side and start from the descendants of the above.

Is there shame in practice, missed! It is better to go home and try to five times with his model remains unchanged, but eager for landing and take the model home in pieces! Landing is the most nervous part of the shelf, the new flights when you love, remember not to panic, if it’s difficult to start.

, Said so many things, though, and always ground, and before the battery dies or landing May be somewhere, I do not want to!

It is important to remember:

* When the model comes to you, will return to the front-line rotation. This is one that will catch the early days, but you soon get used to this’ reverse coordination. ”
* If you enter your troubles and a model is not to want to do this, reduce car! 9 10 times, this will greatly reduce the chances of any serious damage, but of course it depends on the situation.
* Radio equipment to ensure that there are many battery charges before you fly, even if only one person was killed and dead batteries will have a model aircraft to ensure that! I know, because I have …!
* Sensible and responsible.

Remember to fly model airplanes, for the first time, usually Shangtou of experience, so do not worry too much if you find that your heart in your mouth!
It is enough to keep things smooth and practice their own pace (and model).
At the same time, allows you to get a lot of confidence and will quickly move to bigger, better reinforced concrete aircraft, flying an impressive stunt.
