Supernova 2011fe may prove to be one of the most important supernovae in recent history. At a distance of only 20 Mega-lightyears, SN 2011fe is the nearest event of its type to have occurred in the last 40 years. It was bright enough to be discovered within a day of explosion, and has been continuously followed by a network of amateur and professional astronomers around the globe, collect a rich multi-wavelength dataset on this important event. I will present our contribution to this dataset collected using the 1.3-meter Robotically Controlled Telescope (RCT) using a standard UBVRI filterset. I will also present the photometric transformation calibrations derived for the RCT in the process of this photometric followup campaign.
