control line flying

Control line flying is a hobby where enthusiasts operate model aircraft connected to a central handle via thin wires. Using these wires, pilots control the aircraft's speed and direction as it flies in a circular path around them. The setup allows for precise maneuvering and aerobatic tricks, with the pilot maintaining visual contact and adjusting controls to perform stunts. This sport emphasizes skillful handling and coordination, combining engineering with artistry, all while operating within a defined circular area called a flying circle.
