We build and fly model airplanes. Well look at our calendar or our billboard on 167 Av. for organized events, but any calm clear day will see flyers at our field, all day at weekends and most weekday evenings. Even in winter. The 167 Av. field is more likely to have flyers at the moment - the other one is new. The radio transmitter has control sticks and on most models we control rudder, ailerons, throttle and elevator - they are moved by servos moved according to the received radio signal.
Some advanced models have flaps and working retractable undercarriage.
4-stroke and electric powered models and some sailplanes. Well, there is quite a range, but a wingspan of 2 meters is normal. Some are very real - built to scale as much for reality as for flying. Some look nothing like real planes, built just for fun. Most are somewhere between.
