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 8:00pm every last Tuesday of the month at:
American Legion Post 306
707 Legion Place
Middlesex, NJ 08846
732-356-9699
Whatz happening at Somerset R/C
Thank you Mercer County Club and Irwin for inviting several clubs for a fun day of Electric Flying. some of the clubs are: Somerset RC, Ocean County RC, Tri-County RC, Burlington County RC, AFRCF, Cross Winds RC, and I probably missed one or two. Enjoy the pictures in our event gallery.
Looks like Spring is a bit lazy arriving. lots of bad weather and not so friendly temperatures but modelers will prevail. we just had our Model Expo and I have included pictures along with some recent flying shots in the gallery so have a look.
The results of the Expo are as follows:
ARF 1st Larry Gray
ARF 2nd Bob Both
Scratch/kit 1st Rich Blatt
Scratch/kit 2nd tie

Congrats to all and thank everyone for participating in our Model Expo
