In the RC Aircraft Modelling Club cadets working in teams have the opportunity to learn to build a glider and then transform it into a RC aircraft. Most of the supplies are provided for the cadets.
Cadets will also have the opportunity to fly light-weight remote control aircraft inside the armoury.
