About Us
Club Interests
Somerset RC is a multi-interest model airplane club. We have all types of aircraft including glow, gas, electric, scale, 3D, sport flying, and Pattern. The models vary in size from small electric to 40% gas. Unfortunately, turbines are not allowed. We all love to just come out, kick back, and spend some time, sharing stories with fellow modelers. We have several events for club members and offer free instruction to members. So, come on out and be a part of our club.
Meetings are 7:00 pm every last Tuesday of the month at
American Legion
707 legion Place
Middlesex, NJ 08846

2026 Fall Picnic
we had our Fall Picnic and closing day. About 25 pilots came out with several airplanes, and we had a full day of flying. Thanks to all those that helped. Bob Ingram won the 50-50. And everyone else won out on probably the nicest flying day of the season. Here are some great photos of today’s flyers and of the combat event. I believe Dave Szabo was the first one to get knocked out by none other than Mike Woodberry. The Somerset County Park commission recreation manager, Kate Miner, came down to see all the airplanes and what was going on. So we gave her an opportunity to fly one of the club trainers, and I think she is sold on becoming a RC pilot. We’ll see
