2011 Official Academy of Model
Aeronautics Safety Code
Effective January 1, 2011
A.
GENERAL : A model aircraft is a non-human-carrying
aircraft capable of sustained flight in the atmosphere. It may
not exceed limitations of this code and is
intended exclusively for sport, recreation and/or competition.
All model flights must be conducted in accordance with this
safety code and any additional
rules specific to the flying site.
1. Model aircraft will not be flown:
(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 fly 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 traffic 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 identified with the name and address
or AMA number of the owner on the inside or affixed to the
outside of the model aircraft.
(This does not apply to model aircraft flown 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 influence 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 flight.
 Rocket motors (using solid propellant) up to a G-series
size may be used provided they remain attached to the
model during flight. Model rockets
may be flown in accordance with the National Model
Rocketry Safety Code but may not be launched from model
aircraft.
 Officially designated AMA Air Show Teams (AST) are
authorized to use devices and practices as defined 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 flown 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 specific 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 flying directly over unprotected
people, vessels, vehicles or structures and shall avoid t.
2. A successful radio equipment ground-range check in
accordance with manufacturer’s recommendations will be
completed before the first flight of a new or
repaired model aircraft.
3. At all flying sites a safety line(s) must be established
in front of which all flying takes place (AMA Document
#706-Recommended Field Layout):
(a) Only personnel associated with flying 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 flying 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 flying site without a frequency-management
agreement (AMA Documents #922-
Testing for RF Interference; #923- Frequency Management
Agreement)
6. With the exception of events flown under official AMA
Competition Regulations, excluding takeoff and landing, no
powered model may be flown outdoors
closer than 25 feet to any individual, except for the pilot and
the pilot’s helper(s) located at the flight line.
7. Under no circumstances may a pilot or other person touch
a model aircraft in flight while it is still under power, except
to divert it from striking an individual.
This does not apply to model aircraft flown indoors.
8. RC night flying 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 flight, 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.
C.
FREE FLIGHT
1. Must be at least 100 feet downwind of spectators and
automobile parking when the model aircraft is launched.
2. Launch area must be clear of all individuals except
mechanics, officials, and other fliers.
3. An effective device will be used to extinguish any fuse on
the model aircraft after the fuse has completed its function.
D. CONTROL LINE
1. The complete control system (including the safety thong
where applicable) must have an inspection and pull test prior
to flying.
2. The pull test will be in accordance with the current
Competition Regulations for the applicable model aircraft
category.
