I found technex and it seems like a land of dreams...
i only know that la trajectory is a aeromodelling competition but as their site crashes i am not able to know more about it like what is the competition exactly(i hope you got it)...
i also saw that it has drone competition and hovercraft that too held by IIT BHU and reliance so can someone enlighten me more about technex and la trajectory(i hope i spelled it right)... ;D

will be really grateful... ;D

Technex is the annual technical Fest of IITBHU. as you said, it is indeed quite a spectacular event.
Coming to La trajectorie (Pardon me if I spelled it incorrectly), it is their Aeromodelling Competition for Electric RC Planes. Having been there once, I can assure you that people there are awesome, they try their best to help you and get your aircraft going even if it is a bit incomplete or incorrectly built(for first timers).
In the competition, you'll have to bring your own RC aircraft (electric) to complete a set of tasks. the set of tasks and the guidelines for building the plane are reviewed every year and tend to change, but there will be sufficient time for building a good aircraft between the release of the Problem statement and the event date.
If you are new into the hobby, then this would be a very good opportunity to get deeper. all the best.

Last year, i.e. in 2018 feb,
The building guidelines were,
- no dimension should be greater than 120cm
- T/W ratio should be less than 1 if excess thrust found, it will be neutralized by adding weight at CG.
- only electric motors can be used and no metal props.
- if any part gets detached, that will be considered the final touchdown point.

the tasks were as follows:
Round 1:
we had to perform maneuvers in the form of figure 8 in the horizontal plane at a particular altitude in a given time.
the ones who perform the most number of 8 s in the sky would go the next round
Round 2:
There were a set of 3 gates of different height. by passing through a gate, we'd get some points, in a given time, the one who scores the most points is the winner.
