CIAM Flyer (04-2019) - More courage to experiment
Only very few athletes make their own sporting equipment. This also applies to the development of competition model aircraft.
CIAM Flyer (03-2019) - The Many Aspects of FAI RC Aerobatics
Aerobatics with radio-controlled model aircraft is challenging in more ways than one.
For one, it requires extensive technical skills and great care when installing the radio control and mechanical transmission to the aircraft's control surfaces. Installation of the highly optimised propulsion units – whether combustion engines or electric motors – requires extensive experience and technical understanding. The second major challenge is flying itself: aerobatics is an extremely demanding sport requiring high levels of concentration!
