The major difference between freeflight and radiocontrolled scale models is that all the adjustments to the flight path of the former must be made before release. Free flight models must be capable of stable flight, whether under power or on the glide, without the need or the opportunity to carry out inflight alterations.
This is a challenge most surely met by lightly loaded, slowflying models based on full size machines having those characteristics, best typified by early biplanes.
