Welcome!

The Mid-Missouri Radio Control Association (MMRCA) welcomes all responsible RC flyers who have current AMA Cards, paid annual dues, and agree to follow accepted guidelines. The following is presented to help make the RC experience safe, and by so doing, more fun for all. The guidelines are for safe operating practices and not just for the sake of regulation.

We have an introductory brochure to tell people about our club. This brochure is in PDF format (385kb in size).

Meetings

Club meetings have been MOVED to the THIRD Wednesday of each month, starting May 2012, at the VFW Hall on Ashley Street behind the power plant on the business loop.

Remember to have flying privileges you must be a member of Academy of Model Aeronautics (AMA), so please attach a copy of your AMA Membership Card to your club membership application. This membership provide a number of benefits including a magazine but most importantly it provides supplemental liability insurance.

Flight Training

We now ask that you contact our training coordinator - Jeff Buchner (Email) to arrange a time for you and your instructor.

To help with this we have put together information to help you move through the process. The Student Pilot Training Guide has been designed to help understand what the instructors are talk about. If you want to learn to fly please come out to the field on Tuesday evenings. (The Student Pilot Training Guide is large if you have trouble downloading try right clicking on the link and chose "Save as").
