R/C is: Fun
Flying radio controlled aircraft is fun. It doesn't matter what you fly - fixed wing, heli, multi-rotor, gliders, whatever. All types of aircraft and flying are allowed at our field.
R/C is: Challenging
The sport of radio controlled flying can be challenging, but in a good way. It will help you learn about aerodynamics, engineering concepts and the basic principles of flight. Radio controlled aircraft will add practical hands on experience for students interested in STEM as an aid to a career in aviation.
Age doesn't matter in r/c. From 6 year olds to 90+ year olds, club members all share the same love of flying. It is a great family hobby. Instructors are available to help you get started.
