Touch and Go Landings for the RC Pilot
In this video I will go over the basics of touch and go landings for the RC pilot.
I will describe what a touch and go is, the basics of a landing pattern, wind considerations in the traffic pattern, pitch and power for proper slow flight execution, crabbed flight, stabilized approaches, go arounds, and finally a demonstration of touch and go landings with a Livewire Champ RC model airplane.
Practicing touch and go landings will simply make any RC pilot a better pilot. The use of touch and go landings lets the pilot work to consistently hit the same touchdown point on the runway, and aids overall landing effectiveness through practice.
Topics covered include the relationship between pitch and power for the RC pilot, slow flight, go arounds and the importance of a stabilized approach to landing.
