Aerolution and PAYLOAD PAL

These resources are designed to enable you to get a team to the BMFA payload challenges.

  • Using our Aerolution curriculum you can teach a group about flight with very little expertise yourself.

  • For larger aircraft you will eventually need to access a model flying club or certificated RC pilot to test your designs but lots of work can be achieved before this. 

  • Round The Pole can be done in a sports hall so you can test powered flight of your concepts before going full RC.

  • We scale up our concepts is such a way as demonstrates the issues with scaling dimensions, areas and volumes.

  • Our Payload Pal kits enable you to build and adjust your airframes before deciding on a final geometry. They are designed to break safely if they crash so you spend little time repairing them before trying again.
