RC plane control modes

In RC planes, the different flight modes—Beginner, Mid (Intermediate), and Expert—are designed to match the pilot’s skill level and desired control over the aircraft. These modes range from maximum assistance to full manual control. In Beginner Mode, the system provides the highest level of stability and control assistance. This mode… Continue reading

Simple RC Glider long flight video

This simple glider has been upgraded with larger 820 coreless motors and slightly larger props. Still running on 1S. To compensate for the lack of ailerons and other control surfaces, the plane often uses wings with a pronounced dihedral angle. While this improves stability, it reduces aerodynamic efficiency and can… Continue reading

Techtip vid: RC stunt glider plane flying characteristics

A plane is subjected to many aerodynamic forces while flying through the air. It lifts up in the air due to the huge aerodynamic lift provided by its wings. In general, larger wing means more lift. However, that may also lead to more drag when wind goes in the wrong… Continue reading

RCPRESS techtip: RC plane and gyro

An RC plane gyro, also known as a flight stabilizer or gyroscopic stabilizer, is an electronic device that helps to stabilize an RC plane in flight. It uses a combination of sensors and algorithms to detect and counteract the effects of turbulence, wind, and other external forces that can cause… Continue reading
