Camp Dates: July 29 - 31st, 2013
Basic Requirements
This is a flight training camp where students are taught how to operate Radio Controlled Aircraft. The age requirement to participate is 15-18 years. The idea is to learn to fly, operate, and maintain RC aircraft models. Although attending the Aerospace Engineering Camp is not required, the RC pilot camp draws upon the knowledge learnt in the AE Camp. All the material required for the camp is provided - students do not need to bring any equipment. However, students are welcome bring their own RC aircraft if they wish. Students will be responsible for all the equipment they bring to the camp.
