Aeromodelling

Aeromodelling

Aeromodelling is the activity involving design, development and flying of small air vehicles. It is a very exciting and interesting way to learn, apply and understand science and engineering principles.

Aeromodelling generally involves small sized flying objects like Radio Controlled Aircraft (RC Aircraft)While designing an aeromodel is highly based on engineering principles, flying part of Aeromodelling is also considered to be an expensive hobby/ sport

EQUIPMENTS

The materials used for manufacturing such model airplanes are polystyrene, foam, balsa wood and fiberglass. Different techniques are implemented for constructing models as per their functions

Types of Aeromodelling

  • Fighter aircraft models
  • Transport aircraft models.
  • Helicopter models.
  • Gliders
