E-mail Print PDF

All -

Please note that our club requires its members to follow AMA guidance with regard to all aspects of safe flying. That includes the use of FPV equipment.

The AMA requirements are:

First Person View (FPV) Operations     
1. An FPV-equipped model must be flown by two AMA members utilizing     
a buddy-box system. The pilot in command must be on the primary     
transmitter, maintain visual contact, and be prepared to assume     
control in the event of a problem.     
2. The operational range of the model is limited to the pilot in command’s     
visual line of sight as defined in the Official AMA National Model     
Aircraft Safety Code (see Radio Control, item 10).     
3. The flight path of model operations shall be limited to the designated     
flying site and approved overfly area.     
4. The model weight and speed shall be limited to a maximum of 10     
pounds and 60 miles per hour.

So, if you choose to use this type of equipment, please do so under the guidance above.

Thanks!
