00:00BATANGAS AEROMASTERS RADIO CONTROL ASSOCIATION
00:04BATANGAS AEROMASTERS RADIO CONTROL ASSOCIATION
00:10has a large group in Tanawan, Batangas.
00:19They are made up of aeromodellers
00:21or those who fly radio control or RC planes.
00:26Some have even dreamed of becoming pilots.
00:32Their playground is an almost one-kilometer airfield in Tanawan, Batangas.
00:39We invited them to assemble RC planes for their aeromodellers activity.
00:46They come together every Sunday to fly RC planes.
00:50Each aeroplane has its own design.
00:59They are very good at assembling their RC planes.
01:03But their goal is to enjoy while they fly their RC planes.
01:20They have been doing this for more than three decades.
01:24In 1937, the first official RC plane was built in another country.
01:31It became more popular in the 1970s
01:34until it arrived in the Philippines.
01:45Erwin Ginto is one of the founders of the group.
01:49He also dreamed of becoming a pilot of commercial planes.
01:54But it didn't happen.
01:57Why didn't you become pilots of big aeroplanes?
02:01You need money.
02:05A lot of money and a lot of time.
02:08That's where we have problems with money.
02:11Yes, with money.
02:12Everything is a challenge.
02:14Some people are paid to become pilots.
02:16They got into the PMA.
02:18They got the right direction.
02:20So they were able to fly.
02:24When you didn't achieve your dream of becoming pilots of big aeroplanes,
02:30you didn't lose your dream of flying.
02:33No, no.
02:34What I thought at that time,
02:35if I cannot fly one, I build one.
02:39Right?
02:40Just build one.
02:41Because I'm good at that.
02:42Let's go to the remote control.
02:44This is it.
02:46Sir didn't become a pilot of big aeroplanes.
02:49He became a pilot of small aeroplanes.
02:55Did you make this?
02:58Basically, not all of it.
03:00But of course, if something good happens, you will do it.
03:04But we have aeroplanes that we made.
03:07Because Erwin loves to compose things,
03:12he is like an aeronautics engineer who made his own RC plane model
03:17that he always uses for flying.
03:20This is like a mower.
03:23Joke.
03:24Precisely.
03:25No, I'm just joking.
03:27No, it's true.
03:29The one for grass?
03:31Yes, the one for grass.
03:32I can see this, right?
03:34It's like that, right?
03:36We just modified it.
03:38We removed the other parts.
03:40So this came from the grass cutter?
03:42Yes.
03:43Oh, wow.
03:45Where did you make this?
03:47Plywood, balsa, foam, and plastic.
03:51Plywood?
03:52Plywood.
03:53The body is made of thin plywood.
03:56Really?
03:57It's just glued.
03:59And there's foam?
04:00Some have foaming to make it faster.
04:03If not, you also have ribs made of plywood.
04:05And this is?
04:06This is the remote control.
04:08This is the remote control?
04:09Yes.
04:10What is that?
04:11Do you also buy this?
04:12Yes, this is what we buy.
04:14For many people, what you're doing is just a game.
04:19But for you, is this just a game?
04:23No, this is our childhood dream.
04:26This is our fulfillment of our dream.
04:28And these airplanes, we call them hobby.
04:34We don't call it a game because it's dangerous.
04:39It means that anyone can use it.
