In order to intuit new concepts, one must first remove the abstraction it is automatically plagued with. For me, the concepts are aerodynamics and electronics, and the way I have chosen to parse them is the radio-control hobby. This series will record the steps I took to make a 3-channel RC plane. Exposition of RC planes For the reader who may be uninformed in this hobby, the following paragraphs will provide the necessary details. An RC plane, or radio-controlled plane, is basically a toy. You have a remote, called a transmitter, that you use to control the plane’s speed and … Continue reading Conquering flight: Proof of concept (Part 1)

print(“Hello, world!”) I am a high school student who is passionate about engineering, math, coding (hence the “Hello, world!” reference), space, and more topics than I have time to study.
