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
