Features

01.

Basics of Aerodynamics: Gain a clear understanding of how lift, drag, thrust, and weight and their interaction create the necessary forces to make certain model aircraft lift or remain in flight.

02.

Design and Construction: Make your planes using simple materials like paper and balsa wood: paper planes, chuck gliders, and rubber-shaft-and-wind-driven gliders.

03.

Flight Techniques and Optimization: Learn flight tricks for instance long-distance flight.

04.

Practical Skills Development: Have the opportunity to experience, firstly, a building, testing, and if required, refining phase where we may be required to develop problem-solving skills through iterative design and testing.
