Build different models, and also compete for distance, launch accuracy and more!
Young Kazan citizens can do everything, participants of the city competitions “Non- Children’s Aviation” from the Technopark “Idea”.
Today, fans of aircraft modeling have gathered in the “Idea”. The event brought together 56 participants from 10 teams (Gymnasium 179, the Centre for Aviation and Ship Modeling of the Technopark “Idea”, the City Centre for Children’s Technical Creativity named after Chkalov, etc.). Participants competed in 5 categories.
Opening the competitions, CEO of the Technopark “Idea” Oleg Ibragimov wished the participants good luck and noted the importance of the competition in the education of future engineers: “Aviation is considered a non-children’s industry. However, it is from small steps, such as modeling and assembling simple aircraft that the long journey to the profession, to the fulfillment of a dream begins.”
One of the participants of the competition, 8-year-old Artyom, is engaged in aircraft modeling in “Idea”. Despite his young age, he has already won several competitions. Thanks to this experience, he became a prize-winner in two nominations today: “Today we launched airplanes for distance and accuracy, as well as gliders for range. I want to participate in competitions and move forward.”
According to the results of the event, all prize-winners in individual classifications were awarded with quadrocopters, certificates and diplomas from the Technopark “Idea”. Winners in the team competition got diplomas and cups. The youngest participant - 7-year-old Damir Saifutdinov received a special prize from a partner of the competition - the Laser Centre of the Republic of Tatarstan. Volunteers of the Republican Resource Centre of Silver Volunteering “Young at Soul” also provided assistance in organizing the event.
