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 are held on the third Tuesday of every month, at 7:00pm, at the Trinity Presbyterian Church in Columbia, Missouri USA.

VISITORS ARE ALWAYS WELCOME!!!

Air Field

The club maintains an air field northeast of Columbia on Mexico Gravel Road east of route Z. You must be a AMA member to fly at the field. See the field link for more details on how to get to the air field.

To Join MMRCA please visit any of our meetings, come out the club field, or attend one of our events. The best time to catch our members at the field is during a nice weekend afternoon and occasionally during the week.

Fill out and sign the membership application form and send it to the Tresurer with the appropriate dues.

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.

Expired Members

Please be advised if you have not renewed your MMRCA membership you no longer have any membership privileges. Please fill out and submit your membership application with your dues and proof of AMA membership as soon as possible.

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").
