Today's model
planes are so sophisticated and detailed. Most propeller driven planes are
powered by engines or quiet electric motor, and are constructed by Balsa,
liteply, Styrofoam or composite materials. basically the lighter the plane the
better.
For most people, the beauty of an airplane's design lies in
its lines and curves. For the flier, however, the beauty of a design includes
what that design can do. That feeling is as true for R/C (radio control) pilots
as it is for pilots of full-size aircraft. The difference in the aircraft size,
and the fact that R/C pilots remain on the ground has very little impact on the
way given designs perform.
However, there is one thing that technology will never replace
the challenge, the excitement and the joy of controlling one of these models in
flight.
