Aero Modelling is the art of designing, building and flying miniaturized Aircraft (powered or non-powered). It is both a hobby and sport; the hobby aspect involves building and assembling model aircraft, and the sport part involves the flying.

“Aero Modelling” or “Model Aviation” refers to the building and flying of model aircraft. Model Aircraft are often scaled-down versions of full-size planes and are either flying or non-flying models of existing aircraft. They are made using materials such as polystyrene, balsa wood, foam and fiber glass.

The models are either static non-flying models, or flying models, and both have different construction techniques. “It’s a dream of every human to fly and reach the sky; either in terms of glory or literally. This aspiration to be in the wind and above all gives thrill and when you can’t do so, you resort to objects and make them fly.” Through Aero Modelling Club, we offer a unique Learn with Fun educational Hobby of Aero Modelling, prescribed by RK University as a co-curricular activity, which a Student can pursue in other than school hours. Aero modelling club @ RK University has been started in Year 2013.

Idea was not only to conceptualize the events of Flying but to facilitate the interested students to recognize their potential in Designing, Simulating, Fabricating and Flying. This is not alone a hobby but also to recognize individual potential in case He/She wants to opt his/her carrier in Aero Space Industry.
