Tony Posted January 20, 2018 Report Share Posted January 20, 2018 These models in particular the SR71 How can it be flown since the real plane cannot be flown by a human alone. In effect the on board computer does most the work, so in this how can a model be flown? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoffers Posted January 20, 2018 Report Share Posted January 20, 2018 You can make a 3-axis stabiliser with an Arduino but can pick up the units ready made for about £20. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony Posted January 21, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 21, 2018 Seems the model follows the same computer control albeit a smaller version than the real thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adam_r Posted January 21, 2018 Report Share Posted January 21, 2018 Lots of jets have a flight controller inside to help stabilise the flight characteristics Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liner33 Posted January 21, 2018 Report Share Posted January 21, 2018 The SR71 was built in 1964 so the computers would be very unimpressive compared to today Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
