What is a model plane?

Any representation on a small scale of full -size aircraft is considered a model aircraft. For many different purposes, there are a number of different varieties of model aircraft: some are simple plastic models made to be presented on domestic coats, while others are gas -powered versions or batteries that can actually fly. The model aircraft can be made of simple plastic, metal metal or, in the case of versions of higher terminals made to fly remote control, composite materials such as graphite or plastic, which are then covered with airtight material and “doped” to make aircraft aerodynamic.

The simplest version of the model is a static scale model. These aircraft often come into sets and must be assembled using rubber cement or epoxy and can be made of plastic, balsa, glass fibers, paper or other simple materials. Are popular among children and model fans and are modeled by hundreds of different aircraftl of life -size. The simple plastic of the Odel ground grinder, like all other model aircraft, can also be made in an image of an imaginary or conceptual aircraft. These types of model aircraft are sometimes also used for promotional purposes and are usually built on a certain scale. The most popular scale is 1: 72-that means that the 72 model aircraft located at the end would be the same length as one of the actual aircraft.

Some versions of the model aircraft are made to really fly. Generally there are three categories of aircraft flying model: free flight version, which is by no means connected to the ground or user such as a glider that is handy; the plane of the control line model that uses a wire that decorates the plane to the user; And a radio -controlled aircraft in which the pilot uses the handset to send radio signals to the receiver inside the plane.The construction of aircraft flying model is generally more difficult to work and Complex than the design of a static scale model and flying models are often closer in form and operate with a real aircraft. Aircraft that add to the complexity of the aircraft flying model, almost all require a drive in the form of an engine or combustion system, which may be difficult to build and maintain. Aircraft of the flying model can be built from scratch, but for users of input levels can be purchased sets that are completely or almost completely built. This is called ARF models that challenge "almost ready to fly".
