Is there any difference between flying a single and multi engine airplane?

Not till one engine quits, then there is a whole lot of difference!!! With both turning, it is a lot like a pattern plane in most cases.

Wow, nothing like a simple question. You will find that the planes fly "Heavier" than single engine planes, in general, due to higher wing loading. Do not do a tail dragger to start with. The engines almost never come up together and this really can make a handful as you start. As stated above, not so different.........UNLESS ONE ENGINE GETS A SERIOUS CASE OF QUIET.
It is usually a good idea to hold a single engine plane up to check engine performance. IT IS MANDITORY for a twin. Lose and engine on take off and you lose the plane.
My two cents are detailed in our sister site at rcwarbirds.com and the technique section.
Good Luck,

PS Now, if we have not scared you........nothing is so cool as the sync of two or more engines in the air.

No, you did not scare me. Thanks for the advices. I just wanted to know. I am right now solo and deciding where to go. I have been to RC Warbirds. The site said twin and multi engines are harder to fly. By the way, I think I have seen you before at Scobee Field. I remember you flew a twin engine airplane.

Don't fall for the DOn'T do A TAILDragger!
Learn to take off smoothly now, before the twin. Alot of ww2 twins are tail draggers. THE B-17 , and Ilove that plane, my favorite in my fleet. IF you want a great twin try the mosquito. I enjoyed it much more than the p-38. Especially when one engine quit. WHich happened ALOT w YS .53s.

For a not-so-facetious crack, when one engine quits on a twin the remaining one gets you to the crash site that much faster.

Learn to use the rudder, and keep your thumbs cocked to chop the throttle and put the nose down the very moment you lose an engine. So long as the air speed stays up you can save the plane.

Wingloading is the largest single factor affecting single engine performance. Behind that is whether there is a vertical fin and rudder directly in the slipstream of each engine ala P-38,B-25,F-82, etc.
Since most scale models have by design a high wingloading the statement about engine loss resulting in a crash is true.
However lighter wingloading designs will fly and fly well on a single engine.
I have been flying a funscale F-82 for two years and over 100 flights flying single engine aerobatics and even performing a single engine takeoff.
The airframe is constructed from two Thunder Tiger Lazy 51s powered by two OS FX 25s. It has flown for two years at the SMALL flyin at Little Rock and may show up in Flying models coverage of the event whenever it comes out.
I also fly larger scale twins and agree that engine out is a tense situation until the airplane is back on the ground, either in one piece or several.[8D]

If you saw me at Scobbie field, you saw me with a twin of some kind.
See you Saturday or Sunday Mornings.
If you want to fly a twin, send me a PM and I will arrage JUST THAT FOR YOU AND YOU MAKE UP YOUR MIND....Yes it is a tail dragger. Do as I say, not as I do.
See you there,
Good Luck,
