From making a sky surfer to pilot training, participants learnt a lot at a three-day aeromodelling workshop hosted by the Aerospace Society of Birla Institute of Technology (BIT) Mesra.
The workshop covered piloting, aeromodelling, analysis of in-flight issues, pre-flight check-ins and flight testing. The sessions were mentored by aerospace enthusiast Vibhu Narain Mathur. PhD scholar Shuvendra Mohan also pitched in.
The inaugural day concluded with a test.
On the second day, the participants received hands-on flight training from Narain with five successful flight attempts. The afternoon session was held in the Space Engineering and Rocketry department.
