Wind as the future Source of Energy
Wind is a current of air that is moving throughout the earth’s face. It is caused by the irregular heating of the earth’s surface by the sun. The surface of the earth is made up of various types of land and water, thus, it plunges the sun’s heat at different intensity.
At daytime, the air over the water heats up slowly than that of above the land. The warm air over the land amplifies and goes up while the Esky air takes place and creates winds. At night, the air cools slowly over the water than it is over the land.
actually, wind energy converts kinetic energy in the wind into more useful energy form such as programmed or electricity. This type of energy is a pollution – free and an unlimitedly sustainable form of energy. It doesn’t use fuel, thus does not create greenhouse gases, toxic and radioactive wastes.
Early uses of wind energy are certain on windmills that are used to grind grains, generators and water pumps. Today, machines that use wind energy are called wind turbine generators and wind pumps usually known as wind turbines.
Now, you might be asking yourself on how wind energy works. The wind is an energy motion present in moving air. The amount of potential energy depends on the speed of the wind and is slightly affected by the compactness of air. It can be determined using barometrical pressure, air temperature and elevation.
The power and energy production in wind turbines noticeably increases as the wind speed increases. Thus, the most cost strong wind turbines are located in the windiest areas. If you will observe, wind turbines are commonly located on tall towers since local terrain awfully affect the speed of the wind.
The following are the step by step procedure on how wind energy works.
* The blades releases as the wind blows and hit them.
* The blades turn a pipe within the box at the top of the turbine.
* The pipe goes into a gearbox and here, the speed of the rotation becomes rapid
* The fast speed of the rotation makes the generator converts the rotational into an electrical energy, using magnetized fields.
* Finally, the power is transmitted around the country by the help of a national grid.
This is how wind energy act and just enough for you to know the basics. The instruments needed to esteem the wind speed and instruction is located on the top of the nacelle. When the direction of the wind changes, the motors turn the nacelle and the blades then go along with it. Brakes are also useful to nacelle so that the turbines can be switched off in very high winds especially during storms. This is to avoid damages and other circumstances.

RTF Helicopters, Are They Really “Ready To Fly”?
Electric RC Helicopters have enjoyed a sudden rise in popularity due to recent significant improvements in the radio-control and electronics industry. As their components improve in quality while at the same time getting cheaper in price, many manufacturers launch beginner models labeled as RTF or “Ready to Fly”- but are they really?
In fact, the phrase “Ready to fly” was born in the days of more “traditional” RC aviation. What it actually meant, at least initially, was “required no assembly”. It didn’t mean that RTF kits didn’t require set-ups, tuning, or tinkering before it could take to the air.
Nowadays, however, new pilots just starting out with this hobby expect their new model that comes labeled as “flying right out of the box” to do just that. Unfortunately, that is not always the case.
Very often, beginner pilots realize that RTF helicopters are not so “ready to fly” when they learn that keeping them in the air is quite difficult, especially for four channel models. While there are co-axle models available which are relatively easier to handle, they too require hours of training.
Also, these helicopters with their rotor blades spinning at extremely fast speeds can cause serious injuries. Therefore, no one would want an out-of-control helicopter of any size in their vicinity. Many would soon conclude that even for these RTF fliers, the best approach is to first learn in a simulator. This fact alone means that even easiest to fly RTF helicopter requires practice, and often times, lots of it – upsetting the very concept of “flying right out of the box”.
RTF Helicopters doesn’t always come with everything you need to fly as most people would think either. The most common missing component is the battery back for the radio controller – they usually come with a battery rack that requires 4 to 8 AA alkaline batteries. More serious fliers usually end up buying a rechargeable pack not long after their initial purchase of the kit.
Another popular missing component is a battery charger. These RTF kit usually comes with very rudimentary adaptor that you can plug right into your battery pack, which by all accounts, doesn’t constitute a “charger”. They don’t even cut the electrical flow when the battery is full (which, by the way, may lead to over charging and ultimately, the explosion of the battery pack). In fact, many find it ironic that these RTF kits include a battery pack but no charger.
Not until very recently has this issue been addressed and few very new models (such as the LAMA IV by Esky) come complete with an adequate charger.
Nevertheless, there are some helicopters that are truly “ready to fly” right out of the box. These are the 2-channel models such as famous Picoo Z. Not only are they ready to fly, they are palm-size, allowing for them to be flown just about anywhere that is windless. These little fliers are also pretty durable, enabling them to withstand crashes after crashes. However, they are much less maneuverable than four-channel models.
All in all, there are many kinds of RTF kits and some are more “ready to fly” than others. Those who want models to work seamlessly right out of the box can settle for 2 channel models, compromising maneuverability. On the other hand, those who want more flight-capable models may go for 4 channel models, only to find that they are not as ready to fly as advertised. Nevertheless, these RTF kits provides a great lesson for enthusiasts new to this hobby; one that teaches them to fly as well as to endlessly enjoy setting up, modifying, and upgrading their models.
