Getting Started With RC Planes

Hello everyone,


                            today Iam going to show you plane parts and how it flies deep in the sky.
Its a great achievement that humans have designed a flying vehicles flies like a bird.
Today a plane can fly like an falcon or swift.

let me give you a quick view how planes were discovered.

you might have heard  the name wright brothers, The Wright brothers, Orville and Wilbur, were two American brothers, inventors, and aviation pioneers who were credited with inventing and building the world's first successful airplane.
                                                   Now days, planes have been developing like anything. Even a teenager can construct a remote control plane which is faster than bird. As the past brothers provided us a base of constructing plane in a abounded ways.

so I hope you understood what Iam actually saying . 

now let me explain parts of the plane.
1st and the basic part of the plane which carries every other part and component of the plane, called fuselage.The main body of the plane, without it we cannot make a plane and it is really important for balancing the plane. Engine, wings, tail wing is carried by the fuselage.

Don't get confused by the above image's labeling , its just labeling of unbasic plane.

the next part of the plane is called wings of plane which is little bit bigger than the fuselage.
Wings are made in the shape of aerofoil, making wings in the shape of aerofoil. Usually a aerofoil have curve and long side and a short and compact side. Below diagram shows a aerofoil.

Introduction to Bernoulli's Theory-
The most important part is taking off, of the plane. Lets give more depth. Wings are the important factor of a plane, which further are most important factor of taking off, of the plane. Lift super heavy plane is done so efficiently by using a scientific theory called Bernoulli's theory.

Bernoulli's theory tells that when the speed of a fluid increase, its internal pressure decreases or indirectly its potential energy goes down.

In aeronautics Bernoulli's theory is applied most.How????
Just look at the below image and try to understand and apply the theory in lifting of the plane.



As already discussed, a wing is shaped in aerofoil form. The above shape in the image represents the aerofoil shape. If you got the logic of lifting, then you are brilliant. If not, then listen. When the plane starts to move when is taking off, there is friction, which is air(fluid), starts to hit the wings. The air moves through the wing from both top and bottom. But the air moving over top of the wing moves faster creating a low pressure, which make the wing to lift upward, causing the whole plane to lift and lake off.
So bernoulli's theory is very interesting. It even applies to submarines also.

Ailerons-
A wing consists of movable parts called Ailerons. they are present at both corners of the wing.
They help the plane in  rolling and providing a quick turn, basically in army planes.
Now Iam moving on tail wing.
A tail consists of many parts.
1) horizontal stabilizer
2)  elevator
3) vertical stabilizer
4) rudder

example you are going in a plane in full speed but you don't have steering control, then can you fly airplane ?
offcourse not, without control we can't fly.

So, at the tail section-
Horizontal stabilizer and vertical stabilizer's help in to keep the plane balanced. In fact,  if the front side carries engine (heavy) which stabilizers help in balancing.


Moving on elevators, they are vertical (range,usually hieght) controllers fixed in horizontal stabilizer.They help to set the plane's pitch from ground. And really helpful in landing and taking off.

Rudder is the control of left and right (steering), alternate of rudder is ailerons.
rudder is fixed in vertical stabilizer, we can turn our plane with rudder.

So, rudder and elevators are the crucial components of the plane.As the above diagram shows the tail wing.

In engine, usually power motors are used in planes which connects a air throwing thing called propeller. As propeller draws lot of force, plane cannot move without it.

In rc planes, brushless motors are used, which are powered by fuels and electricity.
