Mini model aircraft

The selection and variety of aeroplanes and helicopters under 100 g take-off weight has now become very large. These small and light models have long outgrown their infancy! Most of the models available for purchase come out of the box ready to fly. Nevertheless, the real model builders can rejoice, because there are also real kits for mini models for sale. Occasionally you can even find a construction plan for such a plane. This book brings some system into the diversity of the offer, so that the reader can selectively pick out the model that best meets his requirements. After a bit of theory, Hinrik Schulte presents a selection of 25 mini-models and has divided them into different categories according to evaluation criteria such as suitability for beginners and flight possibilities.
