  • Patent number: 5571038
    Abstract: A model airplane flight simulator which enables a model airplane to be maneuvered by a remote control device through pitch, yaw and roll without movement over ground. The model airplane includes most of the attributes of a flying model such as one and preferably two, motor-driven propellers for generating airflow over control surfaces which include actuator controlled ailerons, elevator and rudder and a remote control device for selectively controlling these features from the remote location. The control device may utilize hard wiring or radio signal to activate the actuator system. No airfoil for wing lift is required in that the model airplane is supported within a rigid inner ring or hoop to which wing or fuselage extension rods coaxially extending from each wing tip or from each end of the fuselage are connected at diametrically opposing points on the inner ring for free rotation of the model airplane within the inner ring about one rotational axis.
