Taking an off the shelf free flight glider and turning it into an RC motorized airplane, using micro brushed motors to power its flight, a very fun and simple project to make.
This is an airplane you can buy for about $10 on ebay, you can find even bigger models, and then buy the electronics to make your first RC airplane yourself.

![10,000 Airplanes & 734,000 People | Worlds Biggest Airshow Documentary [EAA Oshkosh 2026]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/JrFHcYmrQx8/mqdefault.jpg "10,000 Airplanes & 734,000 People | Worlds Biggest Airshow Documentary [EAA Oshkosh 2026]
734,000 people. Over 10,000 aircraft. One week in Oshkosh Wisconsin.
Every July, Wittman Regional Airport becomes the busiest airspace on the planet. EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2026 drew a record 734,000 attendees from 98 countries and more than 10,000 aircraft, with 2,851 showplanes on the grounds.
But the numbers arent the story. We spent the week asking one question: why do these people keep coming back, year after year, in ever-increasing numbers?
Thousands of owners camping under the wings of their own aircraft. Warbirds and vintage airliners flying every day, not just sitting on display. The seaplane base on Lake Winnebago. The night airshow. KidVenture, where volunteers put the next generations hands on real aircraft. And six pilots who each remember the exact moment flying stopped being something they watched and became something they had to do.
