Four Stroke (Four Cycle):
Although a 4-stroke engine has less power than a 2-stroke engine of comparable size, there are advantages to 4-stroke engines. They do not require a muffler and are often quieter than most 2- strokes are with a muffler. They can swing a bigger prop than the same size 2- stroke engine. This is an asset in the large, slow-flying aerobatic and scale models where 4- stroke engines are usually mounted. Lastly, the fuel economy is bett...

Flight Pack or Airborne Pack : All of the radio equipment installed in the airplane, i.e., Receiver, Servos, Battery, Switch Harness.
This is not a similar thing to the flight box, rather it refers to all the radio equipment that is used in an RC aircraft during flight. This includes most importantly the receiver, but also the servos/ESC, flight...

FHSS (Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum) :
— A 2.4GHz radio system which switches from one "free" frequency to another every few milliseconds. While jumping from one to the other frequency, you are not spending much time on that frequency and this keeps out interference. See also: DSSS.

Electric vs. Gas Cars: Electric vehicles are the most popular choice in R/C car racing. They are quick, quiet, easy to build and comfortable for the beginning R/Cer to drive. The electric cars are powered with a rechargeable nicd battery that can be charged in as little as 15-20 minutes. A vehicle with a stock motor will provide about 6-8 minutes...
