Turning around the longitudinal
axis (banking or turn): aileron or V-
shape of the wing if rudder is
activated
Free axes of revolution:

all axes (3D) as soon as it moves in the air.
Changes in attitude and flight direction are initiated
by movement of the control surfaces (rudder,
elevator, and aileron).
Power switch:
Transmitter and receiver are
each equipped with a switch to turn on or off
current supply.
Propeller (airscrew):
by the motor and generates the propulsion of the
model. The power of the motor, size and weight of
the model and resulting air speed, determine the
design of a propeller. The better the propeller is
matched for a model, the better the efficiency and
flying performance. There are two important
dimensions that determine a propellers
performance. Diameter and pitch preferably
indicated by the inch. The propeller of the
Skydreamer
with the values 5x4,5 (inches)
has a diameter of 5and a pitch of 4,5 inches;
during one rotation this would make a forward
movement of 4,5 inches for one revolution. If
rotating at 8,000 rpm that would result in approx 34
mph. The speed which can be attained is slightly
lower as the propeller can generate propulsion
only with a certain amount of "slip".
Receiver:
The receiver intercepts the signals of
the transmitter via its antenna and converts them
into pulses for the servos which operate the control
surfaces. In addition it converts the radio signals
for the electronic speed controller which regulates

Rudder:
The rudder of most airplane designs
utilise at least one fin, preferably in a vertical
position with a movable flap at the end. By
swinging the flap to the left or to the right, affects
the airflow which moves the tail of the airplane
sideward. Together with other effects (V-shape of
the wing or operating the here optional ailerons)
the rudder starts turning the airplane.
Servo:
The steering signals of the
transmitter are converted by the
receiver into control values for the
allocated servos. The servo motor
operates the servo lever by means of
a gear, which then moves in an arc
according to the signal, up to 1/6th of a circle.
Usually the servo lever is connected via rods to the
control surfaces.
Speed controller:
The electronic speed
controller regulates the speed of the motor with
almost no power loss, by switching the motor
current on and off (with a very high frequency) in
differing long pulses. If the voltage of the battery
drops by continuous discharge below a certain
limit, needed to operate the servos, the speed
controller will stop the motor. Your
