By Paul Gibeault - Media Director for the 2024 F2 World Championships for Control Line Models The Academy of Model Aeronautics (AMA) welcomes the world to the 2024 F2 World Championships for Control ...

There is extensive research on how a fixed-position flap affects lift in the realm of fluid-structure interaction. So, researchers conducted a bio-inspired study with a novel twist -- variable ...

This event is the showcase for control-line model aeroplanes, a sport that involves controlling petrol powered aircraft via high-tension wire.

DRYDEN RESEARCH CENTER, California - Imagine airplane flaps that flex instead of simply raise and lower. Could they control aircraft better? NASA is about to do an experiment to find out.

1 Control Line model aircraft are model aeroplanes that are controlled in flight by one of more (normally a pair) of lines, attached to a handle, that work the required flight functions.
