Welcome Pack
Welcome to Eastpoint Aeromodellers Club (EPAC)
The Committee and Members of the Club would like to welcome you as a new member to the Club and provide you with some information on how the Club operates.
East Point Aero Modellers Club was formed over 40 years ago. With 20 acres of well-maintained grounds, two large shaded pit areas, B.B.Q. facilities, public area and toilets.
All disciplines of Radio Control Aero modelling is conducted whether it be Fixed Wing (Planes), Gliders, Rotary Wing (Helicopters) and the fairly new addition of the Multi Rotor class (Quad - Copters, Tri - Copters and Drones etc.) .
Mentoring or help to assist new pilots get off the ground, for fixed wing Aircraft – Engine Powered - Electric and Gliders is available by experienced members, if required.
Members should aim to achieve either Bronze, silver and, when really experienced, Gold wings awards see the attached form.
With our club days being Wednesdays and Sundays at approx. 4:00pm, depending on the weather, members of the public are welcome, as are new members.
It should be noted that Club members are free to fly at any time. It is good practice, in general, to have more than one member attending in case an emergency arises.
Aero modelling is a great outdoor activity, we have members as young as 6 years, the oldest member John Manning is now 84, being one of our founding members.
