Welcome to Hooked On RC Airplanes!
Flying RC airplanes is more than a hobby, it's a passion!
Every pilot can tell you the precise moment they became hooked on RC airplanes. It doesn’t happen slowly over time. You try it once and you're hooked for life!
Flying radio control airplanes really is an awesome experience. You can feel the adrenaline that surges throughout your body as the fate of your pride and joy lies in the steady movements of your fingers. You feel your heart thumping as your model screams by the runway, inverted, at speeds upwards of 60 MPH! Many times I am actually shaking after landing my airplane safely!
You begin to obsess on when you can get your bird in the air again in order to get that next fix of adrenaline! You spend hours in the garage building, tweaking, and preparing your airplane for the next flight!
This hobby is more than just building and flying airplanes. It's about comradery. It's about helping others that share your passion. I learn so much from the more experienced flyers at my club. They bend over backwards to help me!
I want to return the favor by passing this knowledge on to you. I have taken everything that I have learned about this most awesome hobby and put it in one convenient location. Here you will find everything from the very basics to the most extreme! Hopefully by exploring this site you will avoid some of the mistakes that I made.
If you're new to the hobby or just curious to see what it's all about then I suggest starting with the Learning to Fly link. Also feel free to check out the site map to make sure you don't miss anything. Having found this page you are well on your way to becoming an RC addict!
