AREA CLUB LINKS:
The Blacksheep Squadron is one of the largest clubs in Central Indiana.
One visit to their club and you can see why. Really nice park-like facilities,
awesome club house and and a fun attitude towards events and all things
aeronautical. Danville is west of Indianapolis out US 36.
Beautiful paved runway and very nice shelter. Located behind the former Indiana Boys School. A skilled group of flyers who offer fun events during the year. Plainfield is southwest of Indianapolis. You can get to the field going out US 40. Flashers on when you enter the prison area.
This club used to fly right next to the Colts Complex off 56th Street. Today, they have a great location up next to Terry Airport on SR 32 north northwest of Indianapolis. I've only flown there once, but I was greeted warmly and really enjoyed the club members.
Great news! A new R/C club in central Indiana! The Northeast Side Taildraggers are centered around the McCordsville area northeast of Indianapolis. They are a young club of enthusiastic modelers but growing every day and always looking for new members! AMA membership is required of course.
These guys are located about 25 miles north of Indianapolis off
of US 31 near Sheridan. I'm told they are a very active and friendly
group of flyers. During the winter months, they meet at the
Noblesville Library.
This group of enthusiasts is located southeast of Indianapolis
near Morristown. They are the oldest radio control airplane club
in the area. Started in 1953, they have been having fun ever since!www.indyrcmodelers.com
Their flying field is located southeast of Greenwood. I belonged to
this club for several years when I lived on the south side of Indianapolis.
A great club and they really put on some nice events throughout the year.
The Johnson County Radio Control club flies out of Tracee Field in Johnson County Park, across from Camp Atterbury, Edinburgh, Indiana. Their site is one of just a few in the area that offers a "hard surface" runway, 570'x40' blacktop or if you prefer grass a 700'x50' runway. Many of their members are also members of other area clubs including Indy area clubs. Great website at www.jcrcf.net
Here's a link I found on the Indianapolis R/C Modelers club website. This is a great link that shows you the location of all the clubs in Central Indiana!
Hoosiers R/C flyers are very fortunate to have the main organizing body of R/C aviation, the Academy of Model Aeronautics, located in Muncie! AMA has over 1000 acres dedicated to our hobby! Great events week after week and month after month. Go to their website to find out more! Here's a separate link to the International Aeromodeling Center : Click Here. The museum on site is super!

"Can I fly one of
your airplanes?
I crashed all mine."
This is a very helpful website from Tower Hobbies for anyone who is interested in learning more about R/C hobbies. Sure, there's a little marketing going on here, but the information is very valuable.
Loads of information on radio control model aircraft.
Gobs of links too. A fun site to spend some time browsing.
