...we had control line. Some still race with control line models today. Quite entertaining to watch. You get the impression that with one false move you could risk decapitation.
Did you know that registration to Fighter Control is completely free and brings you lots of added features? Find out more....

Re: Before the days of RC...
I only flew a control line aircraft once - that was at my school (Junior Tech) in Norwich, probably 1957, under the instruction of 'Hoof' Proudfoot (he was killed in a crash at Duxford many years later - very sad loss). Control line flying - very limited in my opinion now, but at the time - great!

Yup. It's a minority section of the hobby that's for sure. But others are also in decline it seems in favour of drones etc. Some would say it's progress. Some.
