Important Review Of Scale Warbirds And Their Performance

By Eloise Hewitt


These are small classic fighters that are normally flown for fun or as a game. Many different versions of these planes have been made and have different power and performance in the air. On average they have, for a size range, 50cc engine and a span 86.5 long. These scale warbirds have a large wing which is bent which makes it easy to fly.

There has been an improvement to a giant scale plane which is much bigger and is a little complex to fly when not used to it. To fly these awesome planes you have to start by a thorough pre-flight check of conditions as to whether they are suitable for the flight. For a small plane it must be mandatory to do this but for a big one it is a must do thing.

When you are satisfied that the weather is conducive for a flight then tighten any loose bolts or nuts and put together all what you need. Then after this check that the plane is balanced by ensuring the central gravity is where is supposed to be. This is an involving activity so it is necessary that before and even on the first flight take with you an experienced pilot to guide you and observe the plane on air to see to it all the necessary parts are fixed as it should be.

Use the control or the radio in the most effective way to ensure that when you fly the plane it goes in the direction intended. Be at the behind most part of the plane, at its tail, facing forward and the pull back the stick. To check the rudder do it in the same way.

Be sure that the carburetor opens as it should when the stick is pushed. This shows that the controls are properly working. To save the battery from unnecessary use by unset flaps which releases a buzzing sound use the radio to control them.

Gasoline is termed as the best fuel for these small planes for they are easy to operate if they are started properly. In addition to that the following should also be properly installed the engine, the fuel filter and the tank.

After this is done be sure that your machine has been fitted with the right size of a propeller as per the recommendation in the engine manual. Then start the engine and leave it to warm up for two or so minutes. When taking off it should be slowly and with care not to start abruptly. When not used to this plane make it a habit to be using runaways until you are properly familiar with this plane.

When you have had an enough ground roll, pull up the elevator slowly until it breaks the ground. To see how the model climbs out hold back the pressure but if it steepens ease off the back pressure. Once you have established your departure hit the retract switch and pull up the gear. Be careful not to fly the plane so high due to the eye effect that makes you see that the plane is still too big
