Purpose

Do it somehow and make it work!

The Kingston RC Club, aka Team Controlled Kaos!

With over 40 members, there's always something going on in the RC club. During our first race we held here at Kingston, a common phrase became "controlled chaos!" We added the K for Kingston and the team name was born.

During one of the meetings, one of the members made the comment "Do it somehow, and make it work!" and that became our battle cry!

We are a group of RC enthusiasts with the desire to learn more about the hobby. We are open to any type of RC vehicle, including cars, boats, drones, planes, you name it! If it uses radio controlled, we are all about giving it a try.

Our goals:

  • Learn about the RC hobby

  • Design, Engineer, and use radio control vehicles.

  • Provide a safe place for operating the various vehicles.

  • Explore various competitions and compete as we can.

  • Assist with training to operate each of the vehicles safely

  • Help our members obtain licenses if needed.

  • Compete against other schools and racers!

  • Ask "what if" and using scientific methods, explore how we can make it better

  • Use readily available technology and incorporate it into the hobby. 3D printer, CAD software, computers, programming, if it can be used to make the RC better, we will find a way to acquire it and use it!
