Abstract
To know how to measure physics magnitudes using electronic devices is very important nowadays and it is better if that knowledge is acquired in the undergraduate level. One interesting measuring process is developed in aviation, where it is important to know the value of many variables to get a soft flight and a good behavior on air. One easy way to get in touch with the aviation field is through model aircrafts. For this reason this paper shows the process of design and implementation of a system to measure speed, height, motor temperature and RPM of the model aircraft Ugly-Stick 40, and to transmit them to be displayed on ground.
