FREE FLIGHT
These
models fly freely without any means of control. The skill lies in trimming
the model on the ground to fly in a controlled manner once airborne.
Models range from simple chuck gliders, through tow-line and bungee launched
gliders, rubber, C02, electric and diesel/glow I/C powered propellor driven
aircraft, as well as Jetex and Rapier (a form of jet propulsion). There
are categories for indoor and outdoor flight, as well as sport, duration
and scale type models.
For the beginner free flight offers perhaps the most economic introduction
to aeromodelling - for less than the cost of a 'Big Mac' at MacDonald's
you can construct a simple model with the potential to fly out of sight
and be lost forever!!
