The Work That an RC Airplane Needs

An RC Plane needs alot of care and work to get going, because even thought they look nice and simple to most, they are very hard to master and build. Before you start building, it is a good idea to learn how to fly the Plane, beacause it is fragile, and expensive to replace. Once you've mastered the controls, it is time to actually build it. It all starts out with a box of wood parts, which contains the wings, body, the propelers, and the wheels. Which you have to manually put together. Then comes the harder part, where you have to setup the remote for the plane, and you have to set up multiple a transmitter on the controller, as well as multiple receivers on the plane to control the direction, and the wings, as well as the rudder (back wing), which helps with direction (side to side). Also, you need a receiver on the elevator (back wing also), which helps with up and down motion. You also need to setup a motor. These are primarily the things you need to make an RC Airplane, but I will go into more depth on my poster and in my video. Tomorrow I will get my RC Plane model to show, and I will also finish my movie next week, also after that, I will do my written statement, then I will do my poster and finish my blog, as well as submit it, then I will get all things organized, finish my poster, practice, and talk to my supervisor, prior to the presentation, to get ready for the final presentation and exhibit.
