   Dethermalizers (DTs) are essential equipment on nearly any outdoor FF model. They come in various forms such as a tilt-up stabilizer or pop-up wing, but the concept is the same: normal lift-producing airflow is disturbed greatly causing the model to descend at a much faster rate, thus saving it from thermal updrafts. Most FF plans and kits have pro...

   In order to fly autonomously, Free Flight models must be sufficiently stable in all three dimensional axes: pitch, roll, and yaw. This is opposite of most forms of active-control flight where maneuverability is desirable. For conventional (wing in front, horizontal stabilizer in back) FF aircraft, there is a narrow longitudinal (fore/aft) CG range....

   What is free flight?

   • Free Flight is the mist of the dawning’s calm as you test. It’s the noonday sun as your model thrusts for the heavens. It’s the cool drink after a dusty chase. It’s the piercing scream of a peaking engine … the silence of the glide. It’s sunburn and poison ivy and weariness to the marrow … made worthwhile.

   How do free-flight planes work?

Outdoor free flyers launch their model aeroplanes on rising thermal currents and let them soar. Indoor free flyers use light, slow flying models launched with a rubber band, for a rewarding experience at fairly low cost.

   How fast do free-flight aircraft fly?

   • With their much lower wing loading, free-flight aircraft fly much slower than the engine-powered radio-controlled aircraft that many people first think of when ‘model aircraft’ are mentioned. Most of them glide at little more than walking pace and few weigh more than 500 grams.
