Aircraft modelling is a technical sport where participants compete in the design and manufacture of aircraft models (gliders, airplanes, helicopters, etc.) and in the in-flight control of these models in terms of speed, range, flight duration and aerobatics. Both adult and junior athletes take part in the competitions.
JSC ENICS supports and sponsors six aircraft modelling clubs in the Republic of Tatarstan.
The first aircraft modeling competition took place in the Kainki village in 2017 and since that time performs annually.
The grounds for various categories of the competition were prepared and adequately stocked near the Centre for Aircraft Modelling and Training of UAV Pilots:
| F1 Category | free-flying models |
| F1A | model gliders |
| F1B | rubber-engine model aircraft |
| F1C | timer model aircraft |
| F1D | indoor model aircraft |
| F1E | model gliders with automatic control for flights from slopes |
| F1G | small-scale rubber-engine model aircraft |
| F1H | мsmall-scale model gliders |
| F1J | small-scale timer model aircraft |
| F1K | CO2-powered model aircraft |
| F1L | indoor model aircraft with a developed (> 50%) stabiliser (EZB model) |
| F1M | indoor model aircraft for beginners |
| F1N | indoor hand-launched model gliders |
| F1P | junior league timer model aircraft |
| F-2 Category | line model aircraft |

| F3G | motorised model gliders |
| F3H | model gliders for fixed-route flights |
| F3I | model gliders with tow aircraft launch |
| F3J | model gliders for sustained flights in thermal flows |
