HKUST Summer Institute Glider Workshop

The HKUST Summer Institute Glider Workshop provides an exciting platform for students to explore the world of aviation and aerodynamics. During this hands-on program, participants learn the principles of flight, experiment with wing designs, and create their own foam gliders. With the advice from the experienced Aero team Members, they were able to optimise their gilders and understand the reasoning being each design choice for the design. From material selection to shaping, students engaged in a blend of engineering, creativity, and physics, all while crafting their airborne masterpieces.
