Because of the enjoyment factor involved, it's little surprise remote planes are rising in popularity. It's possible to buy your own kit or cut it from wood like they used to back in the day, create the plane, then fly it around with the aid of your remote control device. It would always be your option to focus on remote controlled cars, which are still very popular, but would you be able to fly them? No!

So what really is the deal with these remote controlled planes? It all lies in your controller, as it instructs your plane to move around based on the radio waves transmitted in the air. The receivers on the plane then carry out your actions to move the wings and other parts, just like the controls on a real plane send signals to mechanically move the parts - after all, it would be almost impossible for a pilot to move a plane without mechanical assistance.

Another big reason for the popularity of remote controlled planes is the fact that the technology used in flying them has become much more advanced as compared to years ago. Consider that one decade ago, remote control enthusiasts were using old-fashioned methods such as petrol to fuel their planes, but today's model planes are now largely reliant on electric power.

If you want to get started on this hobby, you can buy your own kit for a reasonable amount of money. These kits come with the parts for the plane, made out of balsa wood (chosen because of its light weight), as well as the instructional manual. However, the kit will not include all the tools you need, which can include saws (if the wood hasn't already been cut) and various kinds of glue.

If you haven't had much experience working with wood, then it may seem like a handful to construct the kit, and it could be very arduous as well, despite what the manual may say. Remember that you are trying to build a smaller version of a real-life plane designed to work like its real life equivalent - every little mistake counts. Errors that wouldn't matter when building most other DIY projects can cause your plane to crash on its first flight, destroying hours of work.

If you aren't a purist who thinks that the following option removes the enjoyment from flying remote controlled planes, you can always buy a ready to fly plane. If you're careful when you build your plane and follow the instructions to the letter, it should work just fine. Happy flying!
