00:49.133 --> 00:51.033 align:left position:12.5%,start line:89% size:77.5% yeah, or anybody's property. 00:51.033 --> 00:52.833 align:left position:22.5%,start line:83% size:67.5% And we're very careful about that. 00:54.000 --> 00:56.966 align:left position:20%,start line:5% size:70% You're aware of all kinds of things going on 00:56.966 --> 00:59.666 align:left position:22.5%,start line:5%

01:23.033 align:left position:12.5%,start line:89% size:77.5% We're very careful about that. 01:23.033 --> 01:25.433 align:left position:12.5%,start line:83% size:77.5% We have patterns that we fly so you know where to look 01:25.433 --> 01:28.166 align:left position:25%,start line:83% size:65% in the sky and we check people out. 01:28.166 --> 01:29.966 align:left position:22.5%,start line:83% size:67.5% >>Yeah, and you fly at Milton Field. 01:29.966 --> 01:31.533 align:left position:20%,start line:89% size:70% Talk about Milton Field. 01:31.533 --> 01:33.666 align:left position:12.5%,start line:89% size:77.5% >>Milton Field is a treasure. 01:33.666 --> 01:37.366 align:left position:12.5%,start line:83% size:77.5% It was part of Mr. Jefferson's plantation at Monticello. 01:37.366 --> 01:39.933 align:left position:20%,start line:83% size:70% At one time he did some wonderful experiments 01:39.933 --> 01:44.900 align:left position:12.5%,start line:83% size:77.5% in water-powered sawmills and things there on that property. 01:46.100 --> 01:49.633 align:left position:20%,start line:83% size:70% It was used as a farm all the way until 1939. 01:49.633 --> 01:51.366 align:left position:22.5%,start line:83% size:67.5% The University of Virginia bought it, 01:51.366 --> 01:54.200 align:left position:30%,start line:83% size:60% and they started a flying school, 01:54.200 --> 01:57.100 align:left position:20%,start line:83% size:70% which was taken over by the Navy and the Army. 01:57.100 --> 01:59.100 align:left position:22.5%,start line:83% size:67.5% And they did a lot of training of pilots 01:59.100 --> 02:01.000 align:left position:20%,start line:89% size:70% for World War II there. 02:01.000 --> 02:04.500 align:left position:22.5%,start line:83% size:67.5% And I flew full size in there until '69. 02:04.500 --> 02:05.966 align:left position:35%,start line:89% size:55% >>Oh wow. 02:05.966 --> 02:09.866 align:left position:10%,start line:83% size:80% >>And in '72, the club has, the model aviation club Rivanna 02:11.166 --> 02:14.333 align:left position:22.5%,start line:83% size:67.5% has maintained and run the field since. 02:14.333 --> 02:16.500 align:left position:25%,start line:83% size:65% And the University still owns it, 02:16.500 --> 02:18.200 align:left position:12.5%,start line:89% size:77.5% and they're very cooperative 02:18.200 --> 02:21.533 align:left position:20%,start line:83% size:70% and we have a good relationship with them. 02:21.533 --> 02:24.766 align:left position:10%,start line:83% size:80% We actually help sometimes some of their people out there, 02:24.766 --> 02:27.866 align:left position:15%,start line:83% size:75% they use it for aeronautical engineering. 02:29.000 --> 02:32.633 align:left position:22.5%,start line:83% size:67.5% The SALT II treaty air sensors out there. 02:32.633 --> 02:35.366 align:left position:22.5%,start line:83% size:67.5% All kinds of things go on, more and more now, 02:35.366 --> 02:38.333 align:left position:15%,start line:83% size:75% of the University-related things. 02:38.333 --> 02:40.166 align:left position:22.5%,start line:83% size:67.5% It's a great relationship we have 02:40.166 --> 02:42.066 align:left position:22.5%,start line:83% size:67.5% with the University at this point. 02:42.066 --> 02:44.666 align:left position:22.5%,start line:83% size:67.5% >>So we're here today with Hoos Flying, 02:44.666 --> 02:49.100 align:left position:12.5%,start line:83% size:77.5% the RC plane club at UVA, to observe some of the planes, 02:49.100 --> 02:51.266 align:left position:12.5%,start line:83% size:77.5% see what the construction's like so we can get tips 02:51.266 --> 02:53.266 align:left position:12.5%,start line:89% size:77.5% on constructing our own plane. 02:53.266 --> 02:57.466 align:left position:12.5%,start line:5% size:77.5% And then also get some of our members exposed to how to fly 02:57.466 --> 02:59.433 align:left position:22.5%,start line:5% size:67.5% 'cause right now we don't have a pilot. 02:59.433 --> 03:00.900 align:left position:20%,start line:83% size:70% >>Hopefully it turns out better than last year, 03:00.900 --> 03:02.633 align:left position:22.5%,start line:5% size:67.5% we ended in a crash. 03:02.633 --> 03:04.833 align:left position:15%,start line:5% size:75% But, (mumbles) this year. 03:04.833 --> 03:06.333 align:left position:25%,start line:5% size:65% >>Last year we did crash our plane 03:06.333 --> 03:08.366 align:left position:15%,start line:83% size:75% right before competition, so we didn't get to go. 03:08.366 --> 03:11.133 align:left position:15%,start line:83% size:75% So this is kind of like a redemption year for us. 03:11.133 --> 03:14.866 align:left position:12.5%,start line:5% size:77.5% >>Control and focus is the most important part of flying. 03:14.866 --> 03:19.533 align:left position:12.5%,start line:5% size:77.5% I lost my first apprentice, lost control and it flew off 03:19.533 --> 03:22.466 align:left position:22.5%,start line:83% size:67.5% out of sight and never to be seen again. 03:22.466 --> 03:24.833 align:left position:22.5%,start line:83% size:67.5% >>Actually, I've never flown the planes. 03:24.833 --> 03:28.066 align:left position:20%,start line:5% size:70% It was a very difficult skill for me to learn. 03:28.066 --> 03:30.433 align:left position:15%,start line:5% size:75% So I ended up going the drone route because for me 03:30.433 --> 03:31.733 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% it's much easier for me to fly, 03:31.733 --> 03:33.200 align:left position:12.5%,start line:89% size:77.5% and I have more fun doing it. 03:33.200 --> 03:36.333 align:left position:12.5%,start line:83% size:77.5% My son is the airplane pilot, so I let him do all that. 03:36.333 --> 03:38.000 align:left position:15%,start line:89% size:75% >>Talk about the benefits 03:38.000 --> 03:39.833 align:left

03:48.133 align:left position:15%,start line:83% size:75% so I can be together with friends with a common idea 03:48.133 --> 03:50.700 align:left position:25%,start line:83% size:65% of things we enjoy and be outside, 03:50.700 --> 03:53.333 align:left position:12.5%,start line:89% size:77.5% have the use of Milton Field. 03:53.333 --> 03:56.633 align:left position:22.5%,start line:83% size:67.5% We teach each other, we learn things. 03:56.633 --> 03:59.000 align:left position:20%,start line:83% size:70% >>The youngest club member is about how old, 03:59.000 --> 04:00.066 align:left position:35%,start line:89% size:55% 12 or 14? 04:00.066 --> 04:01.366 align:left position:32.5%,start line:89% size:57.5% >>Probably 12. 04:01.366 --> 04:03.266 align:left position:22.5%,start line:83% size:67.5% >>And the oldest is probably how old? 04:04.133 --> 04:06.100 align:left position:12.5%,start line:89% size:77.5% >>We have several in the 90s. 04:07.566 --> 04:09.400 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% They are not necessarily active, 04:09.400 --> 04:11.233 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% but they're still on the rolls. 04:11.233 --> 04:13.633 align:left position:12.5%,start line:89% size:77.5% It's a great retirement hobby. 04:13.633 --> 04:15.900 align:left position:20%,start line:83% size:70% And as I say, it gives you a way to get outside 04:15.900 --> 04:17.566 align:left position:20%,start line:89% size:70% with a bunch of friends. 04:17.566 --> 04:18.766 align:left position:40%,start line:89% size:50% >>Yeah. 04:18.766 --> 04:20.566 align:left position:22.5%,start line:83% size:67.5% >>All the things that make airplanes fly 04:20.566 --> 04:23.333 align:left position:22.5%,start line:83% size:67.5% are how the world works, it's physics. 04:23.333 --> 04:27.033 align:left position:12.5%,start line:83% size:77.5% >>And what's great, I think, is that you don't have to know 04:27.033 --> 04:29.166 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% any of this to become a member. 04:30.333 --> 04:31.700 align:left position:25%,start line:83% size:65% You don't have to know how to fly. 04:31.700 --> 04:35.000 align:left position:22.5%,start line:5% size:67.5% You all teach members how to fly. 04:35.000 --> 04:36.833 align:left position:10%,start line:5% size:80% >>We will provide an instructor, 04:36.833 --> 04:39.633 align:left position:25%,start line:5% size:65% we will provide a training aircraft. 04:39.633 --> 04:41.066 align:left position:15%,start line:89% size:75% There is no cost to that. 04:41.066 --> 04:43.933 align:left position:15%,start line:83% size:75% You must join the Academy of Model Aeronautics 04:43.933 --> 04:46.666 align:left position:12.5%,start line:83% size:77.5% 'cause that's where our umbrella insurance comes from. 04:46.666 --> 04:48.000 align:left position:40%,start line:89% size:50% >>Right. 04:48.000 --> 04:50.066 align:left position:15%,start line:83% size:75% >>And you must eventually join the club, 04:50.066 --> 04:51.533 align:left position:25%,start line:83% size:65% but you don't even have to do that 04:51.533 --> 04:52.766 align:left position:12.5%,start line:89% size:77.5% in order to go out and fly, 04:52.766 --> 04:54.166 align:left position:25%,start line:83% size:65% as you found out out this morning. 04:54.166 --> 04:55.700 align:left position:40%,start line:89% size:50% >>Yeah. 04:55.700 --> 04:57.600 align:left position:22.5%,start line:83% size:67.5% >>There's also a kind of important thing is, 04:57.600 --> 05:00.333 align:left position:20%,start line:83% size:70% these planes of mine that you're seeing here, 05:00.333 --> 05:02.200 align:left position:22.5%,start line:89% size:67.5% are kind of unusual. 05:02.200 --> 05:04.933 align:left position:20%,start line:83% size:70% You don't have to be this deep in the hobby. 05:04.933 --> 05:07.000 align:left position:22.5%,start line:83% size:67.5% You can get into it as deeply as you want. 05:07.000 --> 05:11.500 align:left position:15%,start line:83% size:75% You can go buy a plane off the shelf like this one. 05:11.500 --> 05:14.333 align:left position:22.5%,start line:83% size:67.5% You can buy this off the shelf and fly it 05:14.333 --> 05:16.200 align:left position:22.5%,start line:83% size:67.5% as soon as you've charged the battery. 05:16.200 --> 05:19.733 align:left position:12.5%,start line:83% size:77.5% Or you can spend quite a long time doing what I do over here 05:19.733 --> 05:24.200 align:left position:12.5%,start line:83% size:77.5% which is to actually design planes and make the original 05:24.200 --> 05:27.800 align:left position:12.5%,start line:83% size:77.5% drawings and actually build directly on the plan. 05:27.800 --> 05:29.033 align:left position:12.5%,start line:89% size:77.5% >>And what about the weather? 05:29.033 --> 05:30.600 align:left position:25%,start line:83% size:65% Seems like perfect weather to me. 05:30.600 --> 05:32.133 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% >>Doesn't get better than this. 05:32.133 --> 05:33.366 align:left position:25%,start line:89% size:65% Very little wind, 05:33.366 --> 05:35.700 align:left position:20%,start line:83% size:70% the windsock over there is hanging, drooping. 05:35.700 --> 05:38.333 align:left position:20%,start line:83%

align:left position:12.5%,start line:5% size:77.5% need to learn how to carefully use, but take care of, 05:48.166 --> 05:51.533 align:left position:22.5%,start line:83% size:67.5% maintenance, and really just make sure 05:51.533 --> 05:55.500 align:left position:22.5%,start line:83% size:67.5% that you know how to operate it carefully. 05:55.500 --> 05:56.733 align:left position:12.5%,start line:89% size:77.5% >>If you're going on a hike, 05:56.733 --> 05:58.700 align:left position:22.5%,start line:83% size:67.5% and you're standing at the edge of a cliff 05:58.700 --> 06:00.000 align:left position:22.5%,start line:83% size:67.5% and you're looking out into the valley, 06:00.000 --> 06:01.800 align:left position:25%,start line:83% size:65% well you can take a drone with you 06:01.800 --> 06:03.500 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% and fly it out in front of you, 06:03.500 --> 06:06.300 align:left position:12.5%,start line:83% size:77.5% and you get a view of you standing on the edge the cliff 06:06.300 --> 06:08.200 align:left position:22.5%,start line:5% size:67.5% that you could never get otherwise 06:08.200 --> 06:09.433 align:left

line:89% size:67.5% Sort of my first time. 06:21.600 --> 06:23.300 align:left position:25%,start line:5% size:65% It was just fun being in the air. 06:23.300 --> 06:25.333 align:left

06:30.366 align:left position:22.5%,start line:5% size:67.5% >>I see what you're talking about. 06:30.366 --> 06:32.333 align:left position:20%,start line:89% size:70% You need a radio system. 06:32.333 --> 06:35.833 align:left position:22.5%,start line:83% size:67.5% And radio systems can be fancy or simple. 06:35.833 --> 06:40.300 align:left position:12.5%,start line:83% size:77.5% I have radio systems here that probably cost 30-some bucks. 06:40.300 --> 06:41.500 align:left position:12.5%,start line:89% size:77.5% >>And they run on batteries? 06:41.500 --> 06:42.966 align:left position:35%,start line:89% size:55% >>They do. 06:42.966 --> 06:47.166 align:left position:25%,start line:83% size:65% This is a very recent innovation. 06:47.166 --> 06:52.166 align:left position:20%,start line:83% size:70% And this one is capable of flying 250 planes. 06:53.033 --> 06:54.133 align:left position:15%,start line:89% size:75% >>And it will play music. 06:54.133 --> 06:55.600 align:left position:30%,start line:89% size:60% You can program. 06:55.600 --> 06:56.666 align:left position:35%,start line:89% size:55% >>It will. 06:56.666 --> 06:57.866 align:left

--> 07:18.566 align:left position:25%,start line:83% size:65% The fuselage is completely scale. 07:18.566 --> 07:21.700 align:left position:20%,start line:83% size:70% And this is the aileron that makes it bank. 07:21.700 --> 07:23.866 align:left position:22.5%,start line:83% size:67.5% That was bank right, that bank left. 07:23.866 --> 07:27.100 align:left position:12.5%,start line:89% size:77.5% This is nose up, nose down. 07:27.100 --> 07:31.900 align:left position:20%,start line:83% size:70% And the rudder, which is to contract adverse yaw. 07:33.333 --> 07:37.633 align:left position:12.5%,start line:83% size:77.5% So these all are exactly the way a full sized plane flies. 07:37.633 --> 07:39.200 align:left position:22.5%,start line:89% size:67.5% This is a real plane. 07:39.200 --> 07:41.166 align:left position:22.5%,start line:83% size:67.5% It just doesn't have a person on it. 07:42.066 --> 07:43.266 align:left position:25%,start line:89% size:65% >>Oh, my goodness. 07:43.266 --> 07:44.366 align:left position:22.5%,start line:83% size:67.5% >>I'm gonna reach over and turn that off 07:44.366 --> 07:46.066 align:left position:20%,start line:89% size:70% just for safety reasons. 07:46.066 --> 07:50.100 align:left position:20%,start line:83% size:70% >>So you've been fascinated with planes. 07:50.933 --> 07:52.000 align:left position:35%,start line:89% size:55% (laughing) 07:52.000 --> 07:53.500 align:left position:22.5%,start line:89% size:67.5% >>It's safety first. 07:53.500 --> 07:55.333 align:left position:12.5%,start line:83% size:77.5% >>You've been fascinated with planes since you were young, 07:55.333 --> 07:59.266 align:left position:15%,start line:83% size:75% and so just tell us really quickly about a handful 07:59.266 --> 08:02.000 align:left position:15%,start line:83% size:75% of the planes that you've designed from scratch. 08:02.000 --> 08:04.333 align:left position:22.5%,start line:83% size:67.5% We've talked about that, what is this? 08:04.333 --> 08:05.600 align:left position:22.5%,start line:89% size:67.5% >>This is a Caribou. 08:05.600 --> 08:09.700 align:left position:20%,start line:83% size:70% It was a plane that was ordered by the US Army, 08:09.700 --> 08:11.600 align:left position:22.5%,start line:83% size:67.5% designed by de Havilland in Canada 08:11.600 --> 08:14.066 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% and it was deployed to Vietnam. 08:14.066 --> 08:16.466 align:left position:22.5%,start line:83% size:67.5% Each of my planes is a specific airplane. 08:16.466 --> 08:17.966 align:left position:25%,start line:83% size:65% >>Right, and you have another one, 08:17.966 --> 08:20.033 align:left position:22.5%,start line:83% size:67.5% you have another one that's almost like a, 08:20.033 --> 08:21.300 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% it's almost like a museum piece. 08:21.300 --> 08:22.366 align:left position:25%,start line:89% size:65% Describe that one. 08:22.366 --> 08:24.900 align:left position:25%,start line:89% size:65% >>That's a S.E.5a, 08:24.900 --> 08:28.533 align:left position:15%,start line:83% size:75% it's the frontline fighter for the RAF in 1919, 08:28.533 --> 08:30.033 align:left position:12.5%,start line:89% size:77.5% at the end of the World War I. 08:30.933 --> 08:32.733 align:left position:12.5%,start line:89% size:77.5% That's one of my best efforts. 08:32.733 --> 08:34.100 align:left position:22.5%,start line:89% size:67.5% >>Yeah, it's gorgeous. 08:34.100 --> 08:35.700 align:left position:10%,start line:5% size:80% And then you have another plane 08:35.700 --> 08:39.366 align:left position:12.5%,start line:5% size:77.5% that's a duplicate of a plane that you used to own and fly. 08:39.366 --> 08:40.933 align:left position:12.5%,start line:5% size:77.5% >>I have a number of those, there's one especially, 08:40.933 --> 08:45.533 align:left position:12.5%,start line:5% size:77.5% it's a third scale in the other room, that's a J-3 Cub. 08:45.533 --> 08:48.166 align:left position:20%,start line:83% size:70% That's a one-third scale of one I used to fly 08:48.166 --> 08:50.666 align:left position:25%,start line:83% size:65% into Milton Field back in the day. 08:50.666 --> 08:52.566 align:left position:22.5%,start line:83% size:67.5% >>Just keep your eye on the airplane. 08:52.566 --> 08:55.700 align:left position:12.5%,start line:83% size:77.5% If you see the nose dropping and the airplane going down, 08:55.700 --> 08:56.633 align:left position:22.5%,start line:83% size:67.5% just pull the nose back up a little bit. 08:56.633 --> 08:57.900 align:left position:22.5%,start line:89% size:67.5% >>Pull the nose back. 08:57.900 --> 08:59.000 align:left position:20%,start line:89% size:70% >>So it's pull and push. 08:59.000 --> 09:00.233 align:left position:22.5%,start line:89% size:67.5% >>Pull and push, okay. 09:00.233 --> 09:02.033 align:left position:25%,start line:83% size:65% >>If you want to turn to the left, 09:02.033 --> 09:03.966 align:left position:22.5%,start line:83% size:67.5% just move the stick to the left a little bit. 09:03.966 --> 09:04.800 align:left position:40%,start line:89% size:50% >>Okay. 09:04.800 --> 09:06.000 align:left position:22.5%,start line:89% size:67.5% >>Okay, now watch it. 09:06.000 --> 09:07.633 align:left position:22.5%,start line:83% size:67.5% If you hold it to the left long enough, 09:07.633 --> 09:09.733 align:left position:20%,start line:83% size:70% it'll just keep rolling and rolling and rolling. 09:09.733 --> 09:12.733 align:left position:12.5%,start line:83% size:77.5% So when it's rolled enough of you making a gentle turn, 09:12.733 --> 09:14.200 align:left position:22.5%,start line:89% size:67.5% just let it come back. 09:14.200 --> 09:17.033 align:left position:12.5%,start line:83% size:77.5% >>I think that it's really great for people young and old 09:17.033 --> 09:22.033 align:left position:12.5%,start line:5% size:77.5% to come out here to learn, and to show off a little bit. 09:23.433 --> 09:27.200 align:left position:15%,start line:5% size:75% >>Being able to fly in all this space in the air 09:27.200 --> 09:29.266 align:left position:22.5%,start line:89% size:67.5% is kind of freeing. 09:29.266 --> 09:32.133 align:left position:20%,start line:5% size:70% >>Our plane is normally like a 14-foot wingspan. 09:32.133 --> 09:35.300 align:left position:10%,start line:5% size:80% This year we're trying to carry about 50 pounds of payload, 09:35.300 --> 09:37.600 align:left position:20%,start line:83% size:70% so to me it's just interesting that you can 09:37.600 --> 09:39.666 align:left position:20%,start line:83% size:70% engineer planes and then design them in a way 09:39.666 --> 09:42.133 align:left position:22.5%,start line:83% size:67.5% where you can get 50 pounds of weight 09:42.133 --> 09:44.200 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% to kind of soar through the sky, 09:44.200 --> 09:46.900 align:left position:12.5%,start line:89% size:77.5% and move and be aerodynamic. 09:46.900 --> 09:50.133 align:left position:22.5%,start line:83% size:67.5% >>I'm rebuilding a plane for a friend, 09:50.133 --> 09:51.933 align:left position:22.5%,start line:83% size:67.5% and this is the motor that came off it. 09:51.933 --> 09:54.466 align:left position:10%,start line:89% size:80% It's never been flown, actually. 09:54.466 --> 09:55.700 align:left position:22.5%,start line:89% size:67.5% I haven't used this. 09:55.700 --> 09:57.366 align:left position:22.5%,start line:83% size:67.5% This is an internal combustion motor. 09:57.366 --> 09:58.766 align:left position:12.5%,start line:89% size:77.5% It's one of those loud things 09:58.766 --> 10:00.700 align:left position:12.5%,start line:5% size:77.5% that people sometimes complain about with our hobby. 10:00.700 --> 10:01.700 align:left position:40%,start line:5% size:50% >>Right. 10:03.733 --> 10:07.900 align:left position:15%,start line:83% size:75% >>This plane is 90-inch wingspan, and it's a Cub. 10:09.200 --> 10:12.600 align:left position:20%,start line:83% size:70% I'm removing this and replacing it with this. 10:12.600 --> 10:15.666 align:left position:22.5%,start line:83% size:67.5% That is the equivalent power, but it's, 10:15.666 --> 10:17.933 align:left position:12.5%,start line:83% size:77.5% other than a little (pounding) sound of the propeller 10:17.933 --> 10:20.033 align:left position:12.5%,start line:83% size:77.5% going through the air, it's almost entirely silent. 10:20.033 --> 10:21.533 align:left position:15%,start line:89% size:75% >>Right, so this electric, 10:21.533 --> 10:24.666 align:left position:15%,start line:83% size:75% and this where a lot of radio control club members 10:24.666 --> 10:26.733 align:left position:22.5%,start line:83% size:67.5% are going these days, most people, right? 10:26.733 --> 10:30.533 align:left position:20%,start line:83% size:70% >>95 or more percent of our flights this summer 10:30.533 --> 10:32.666 align:left position:12.5%,start line:89% size:77.5% have been with electric power. 10:32.666 --> 10:35.666 align:left position:15%,start line:83% size:75% Which basically I brought to this club 14 years ago. 10:35.666 --> 10:36.466 align:left position:42.5%,start
