RC- RUCKUS

RC RUCKUS is an exciting and competitive RC (Remote-Controlled) car racing event where students design, build, and race their own remote-controlled vehicles. This event encourages hands-on engineering, creativity, and teamwork, providing participants with an opportunity to showcase their technical skills and innovation.

Participants must follow a defined set of rules and regulations regarding the design specifications, race conduct, and safety standards to ensure a fair and disciplined competition environment. These rules are designed to maintain the integrity of the event and promote healthy competition.

The competition evaluates cars based on multiple criteria such as speed, control, stability, and overall performance on the race track.
