With close to 40,000 participants, model flying is a hugely popular pastime in the UK and one that suits enthusiasts of all ages. It’s a hobby that’s at once exciting, educational and absorbing with flyers meeting at club sites or flying from slopes and parks. All budgets and skill levels can be accommodated and the hobby has never been as accessible or affordable as it is today, thanks, in part, to the huge range or kits, models and plans available.
Radio Control Models and Electronics magazine first appeared in May 1960 and has grown to become the UK's biggest and best selling monthly model flying magazine.
RCM&E magazine has brought benchmark levels of writing and photography to the hobby and each issue has extensive reviews, informative features and opinionated columns from a number of well known contributors. With every issue you'll also find a high-quality free plan along with an accompanying build article.
As the online home of RCM&E magazine, the site publishes regular articles and reviews by the title's editors and contributors, but also encourages its members to get involved by joining in forum discussion, uploading their own images and submitting their own reviews and features.
