A. GENERAL:
A model aircraft is a non-human-carrying aircraft capable
of sustained fl ight in the atmosphere. It may not exceed
limitations of this code and is intended exclusively for
sport, recreation and/or competition. All model fl ights must
be conducted in accordance with this safety code and any
additional rules specifi c to the fl ying site.
1. Model aircraft will not be fl own:
(a) In a careless or reckless manner.
(b) At a location where model aircraft activities are
prohibited.
2. Model aircraft pilots will:
(a) Yield the right of way to all man carrying aircraft.
(b) See and avoid all aircraft and a spotter must be used
when appropriate. (AMA Document #540-D-See and Avoid
Guidance.)
(c) Not fl y higher than approximately 400 feet above ground
level within three (3) miles of an airport, without notifying
the airport operator.
(d) Not interfere with operations and traffi c patterns at any
airport, heliport or seaplane base except where there is a
mixed use agreement.
(e) Not exceed a takeoff weight, including fuel, of 55 pounds
unless in compliance with the AMA Large Model Aircraft
program. (AMA Document 520-A)
(f) Ensure the aircraft is identifi ed with the name and
address or AMA number of the owner on the inside or affi xed
to the outside of the model aircraft. (This does not apply to
model aircraft fl own indoors).
(g) Not operate aircraft with metal-blade propellers or with
gaseous boosts except for helicopters operated under the
provisions of AMA Document #555.
(h) Not operate model aircraft while under the infl uence of
alcohol or while using any drug which could adversely affect
the pilot’s ability to safely control the model.
(i) Not operate model aircraft carrying pyrotechnic devices
which explode or burn, or any device which propels a
projectile or drops any object that creates a hazard to
persons or property.
Exceptions:
• Free Flight fuses or devices that burn producing smoke
and are securely attached to the model aircraft during
fl ight.
• Rocket motors (using solid propellant) up to a G-series size
may be used provided they remain attached to the model
during fl ight. Model rockets may be fl own in accordance
with the National Model Rocketry Safety Code but may not
be launched from model aircraft.
• Offi cially designated AMA Air Show Teams (AST) are
authorized to use devices and practices as defi ned within
the Team AMA Program Document (AMA Document #718).
(j) Not operate a turbine-powered aircraft, unless in
compliance with the AMA turbine regulations. (AMA
Document #510-A).
3. Model aircraft will not be fl own in AMA sanctioned events,
air shows or model demonstrations unless:
(a) The aircraft, control system and pilot skills have
successfully demonstrated all maneuvers intended or
anticipated prior to the specifi c event.
(b) An inexperienced pilot is assisted by an experienced pilot.
4. When and where required by rule, helmets must be
properly worn and fastened. They must be OSHA, DOT, ANSI,
SNELL or NOCSAE approved or comply with comparable
standards.
B. RADIO CONTROL (RC)
1. All pilots shall avoid fl ying directly over unprotected
people, vessels, vehicles or structures and shall avoid
endangerment of life and property of others.
2. A successful radio equipment ground-range check in
accordance with manufacturer’s recommendations will be
completed before the fi rst fl ight of a new or repaired model
aircraft.
3. At all fl ying sites a safety line(s) must be established
in front of which all fl ying takes place (AMA Document
#706-Recommended Field Layout):
(a) Only personnel associated with fl ying the model aircraft
are allowed at or in front of the safety line.
(b) At air shows or demonstrations, a straight safety line
must be established.
(c) An area away from the safety line must be maintained for
spectators.
(d) Intentional fl ying behind the safety line is prohibited.
4. RC model aircraft must use the radio-control frequencies
currently allowed by the Federal Communications
Commission (FCC). Only individuals properly licensed by the
FCC are authorized to operate equipment on Amateur Band
frequencies.
5. RC model aircraft will not operate within three (3)
miles of any pre-existing fl ying site without a frequency-
management agreement (AMA Documents #922-Testing for
RF Interference; #923- Frequency Management Agreement)
6. With the exception of events fl own under offi cial AMA
Competition Regulations, excluding takeoff and landing, no
powered model may be fl own outdoors closer than 25 feet to
any individual, except for the pilot and the pilot’s helper(s)
located at the fl ight line.
7. Under no circumstances may a pilot or other person touch
a model aircraft in fl ight while it is still under power, except
to divert it from striking an individual. This does not apply to
model aircraft fl own indoors.
8. RC night fl ying requires a lighting system providing the
pilot with a clear view of the model’s attitude and orientation
at all times.
9. The pilot of a RC model aircraft shall:
(a) Maintain control during the entire fl ight, maintaining
visual contact without enhancement other than by corrective
lenses prescribed for the pilot.
(b) Fly using the assistance of a camera or First-Person View
(FPV) only in accordance with the procedures outlined in AMA
Document #550.
Please see your local or regional modeling association’s
guidelines for proper, safe operation of your model aircraft.
