    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_model_airplane_fields

    Model airplane fields are used for landings and takeoffs of model aircraft.. Facilities provided vary significantly. They range from unimproved fields to paved runways.. Most model airfields in the United States have clubs chartered with the Academy of Model Aeronautics, similarly in Canada, their equivalent organization, the Model Aeronautics Association of Canada, provides the same function.

  3. Aircraft principal axes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aircraft_principal_axes

    The yaw axis has its origin at the center of gravity and is directed towards the bottom of the aircraft, perpendicular to the wings and to the fuselage reference line. Motion about this axis is called yaw. A positive yawing motion moves the nose of the aircraft to the right. [1] [2] The rudder is the primary control of yaw. [3]

    [3] By contrast, in case of air and sea vehicles like submarines, ships, airplanes etc., which use the NED-system (North-East-Down) as external reference (World frame), the vehicle's (body's) positive y- or pitch axis always points to its right, and its positive z- or yaw axis always points down. World frame's origin is fixed at the center of ...

    They sanction more than one thousand model competitions, and an increasing number of non-competitive Fly-in events for member aeromodelers throughout the country each year, charter more than 2500 model airplane clubs and offer contest sanctioning, liability insurance and the procurement of flying sites. They also certify official model flying ...

    Singapore Airlines Boeing 747-400 scale display model Group of students with their wooden model airplanes in Sonta, Serbia, 1936. A model aircraft is a physical model of an existing or imagined aircraft, and is built typically for display, research, or amusement. Model aircraft are divided into two basic groups: flying and non-flying.

  7. Rotation (aeronautics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotation_(aeronautics)

    An aircraft moves at any given moment in one or more of three axes: roll (the axis that runs the length of the fuselage), pitch (the axis running laterally through the wings), and yaw (the vertical axis around which the front of the aircraft turns to the left or right whilst its rear turns toward the opposite direction).

    Origin - airplane center of gravity; x w axis - positive in the direction of the velocity vector of the aircraft relative to the air; z w axis - perpendicular to the x w axis, in the plane of symmetry of the aircraft, positive below the aircraft; y w axis - perpendicular to the x w,z w-plane, positive determined by the right hand rule ...
