Seldom has a long-established hobby been transformed more than radio controlled model aircraft flying has been with the development of light-weight, inexpensive electric power systems. After decades of dominance by glow and gas powered internal combustion engines, the hottest thing in RC flying today is electric powered model aircraft.Energy dense lithium polymer batteries, powerful brushless electric motors and the digital devices that control them have taken the radio control hobby by storm. With them has come a veritable tsunami of molded foam models of nearly every type of airplane imaginable. Warbirds like the P-51 Mustang, aerobatic aircraft like the Edge 540 and a variety of trainers similar to the Cessna 172 fill the online marketplaces and the shelves of local hobby shops around the world. Traditional models, too, are being developed or converted to fly with electric power systems.These models have their own body of knowledge. Instead of tinkering with the needle valve settings of internal combustion engines, now modelers are computing watts, managing amps, determining volts and shopping for components that maximize power without exceeding the electronic limits of their model's components.RC Ground School provides you with the information you need to get started in the exciting hobby of model aviation. You'll get answers to these and other questions:What should I consider in choosing a model aircraft?What kind of transmitter should I consider?Should I go with a ready-to-fly kit or an almost-ready-to-fly model?What if I need to teach myself to fly?How can I find an instructor?How do I operate my model safely?How do electric models work? Come join the thousands of other modelers enjoying this fun and interesting hobby. RC Ground School is the perfect tool to help you get started.Already flying glow or gas airplanes? Thinking about converting to or adding an electric model to your hangar? The second half of the book is a deeper dive into what makes up an electric model's power system and what you'll need to know to convert that old friend to electric power or at least keep up with the conversations at the field.

Gliding is probably one of the most elegant forms of moving in the air. No wonder, then, that it also has a very special appeal for model pilots and that many beginners choose gliding. In this book, FMT author Werner Baumeister explains everything you need to get started successfully. The construction and special features of today's widely used ARF (Almost Ready to Fly) models are explained as well as the important steps of setting up, flying in, and optimising. Of course, the experienced glider pilot also gives plenty of tips from his many years of practice, making it easier to get started in successful model gliding. And by the way: even old hands can benefit from some of the author's tips in this book. From the content: • Which model suits me? – a decision-making aid • Electric or "clean” • The shopping checks • The model • Flying in and optimising • EWD and centre of gravity – and what goes with it • When the wings flap... • Help, my model is gone! • First aid for beginners

The #1 New York Times bestseller from David McCullough, two-time winner of the Pulitzer Prize—the dramatic story-behind-the-story about the courageous brothers who taught the world how to fly—Wilbur and Orville Wright. On a winter day in 1903, in the Outer Banks of North Carolina, two brothers—bicycle mechanics from Dayton, Ohio—changed history. But it would take the world some time to believe that the age of flight had begun, with the first powered machine carrying a pilot. Orville and Wilbur Wright were men of exceptional courage and determination, and of far-ranging intellectual interests and ceaseless curiosity. When they worked together, no problem seemed to be insurmountable. Wilbur was unquestionably a genius. Orville had such mechanical ingenuity as few had ever seen. That they had no more than a public high school education and little money never stopped them in their mission to take to the air. Nothing did, not even the self-evident reality that every time they took off, they risked being killed. In this “enjoyable, fast-paced tale” (The Economist), master historian David McCullough “shows as never before how two Ohio boys from a remarkable family taught the world to fly” (The Washington Post) and “captures the marvel of what the Wrights accomplished” (The Wall Street Journal). He draws on the extensive Wright family papers to profile not only the brothers but their sister, Katharine, without whom things might well have gone differently for them. Essential reading, this is “a story of timeless importance, told with uncommon empathy and fluency…about what might be the most astonishing feat mankind has ever accomplished…The Wright Brothers soars” (The New York Times Book Review).

Rolls, loops, knife-edge flight ... - Aerobatics is a fascinating model sport! From the contents: Should it be a prototypical replica, an ARF model, a homebuilt or even a competition machine? How to handle the technology, how to optimize the propulsion and which remote control components are best suited? These and many other basic questions are answered by the author Lothar Beyer from his decades of aerobatic experience. And once the technical aspects have been clarified and the transmitter has been programmed for aerobatics, the training can begin. The various groups of aerobatic maneuvers – from turn maneuvers to roll maneuvers, loops, and maneuver combinations to spins - are described in detail. Many hints and over 130 illustrations help to understand and practice the complex matter of aerobatics. Anyone who has already mastered an aileron model and is now looking for further know-how will find the way to becoming a successful aerobatic pilot with this book.
