      Mais non et heureusement la traction se fait sur le pylône le pilote durant toute la base commande le vol de l'avion et tout doit etre anticipé avec au minimum 3/4 de tour d'avance car à ces vitesse tout est amplifié et il faut tout contrôler tout en veillant à ne pas laisser l'avion vous surprendre en prenant de l'avance.

    I love the sound of the rich fuel mixture causing the engine to four stroke until the plane gets enough speed to increase the air intake to convert to two stroke. Makes me dizzy watching the pilot spinning. I used to fly combat so we had the luxury of not having to spin around so much. Speed was never my thing maybe because our flying field was grass only. Control line was a time of innocence. When we built our own planes from design to cutting the parts. A sport even a kid with an after school job could afford. In my time RC was for the rich guys only.

    • @CrowPal
      @CrowPal 3 місяці тому

      My control line exploits as a kid ended after half a lap of my first C/L kit plane. There was this wooden crate on the field that was closer than it looked. It crushed my expectations and ended my dreams, including my dreams of RC. I quit all aeromodelling. Couldn't take it. My parents felt sorry for me and bought me a replacement kit, which I still have, unstarted, up in the attic.

      @geebee3d 2 роки тому

      I believe that the engine is warmed up in the first few laps, and then the pilot starts to muscle the plane around the circle. This brings it up to full pitch speed by temporarily unloading the prop.

      Control line planes date way back, circa 1950's-60's. This was before the days of electronic radio control. This was radio control back then. Of course, like most people, "If it can move, it can move faster." And that's how this sport came to be. Not as popular nowadays because of course, we have radio control, but it's still a fun sport to watch, and they are blindingly fast.

Eastern European teams were just operator's as the complete FAI modeling was payed by the Russian government ! in the early 80's after about 6 contests in 10 years Russia came from nowhere with rule book correct FAI speed entrants also some exposure of rules ! the norm was highly modified ROSSI engines the Commies completely designed and made there superior engines in house ! the Russian's cleaned up ! this year the team had military escorts ! 2 years later the next world championships the military was gone and every team was getting the Russian's pissed nightly and buying everything they had after the contest !
