The RC (Remote Controlled) AeroModelling Club is run by a group of student enthusiasts sharing knowledge and skills in constructing different plane models, kites or even control line. The students also learn the various techniques of manoeuvering and piloting the planes, helicopter, kites from the ground using remote controls.
For this group of students, the knowledge acquired from their Aerospace Option helps them in bringing the fun factor of their hobby to a higher level. In addition, they are able to apply the skills acquired from their trainings in the club when they enrol in AeroModeling competitions organised by the Singapore Youth Flying Club.
The RC AeroModelling Club has a BLOG and also a Community Forum Portal managed by students themselves to carry out discussions about interesting activities, trainings and future events relating to Aero Modelling in Temasek Polytechnic.
If learning to fly or manoeuver a plane interests you, do visit the above portal regularly to participate and interact with our student enthusiasts. Most importantly, do have FUN !!
