1. Access & Scheduling (48-Hour Notice)

You must complete an in-person site orientation before your first flight. All flights must be booked at least 48 hours in advance using our official Google Calendar Booking Page. The system will not accept late bookings. Please note that flying is restricted to our designated club days [e.g., Friday, Saturday, Sunday] to respect the farm's daily operations. Carry your CASA ID and AMA card at all times.

2. Launch/Landing Location

All RC pilots must fly from the same general location on any given day (i.e. pilots must use the same general launch/landing area when multiple pilots are flying at one time and not spread all over the property).

3. Fire & Safety

If you use LiPo batteries, you must have a fire extinguisher in your vehicle. Report any crashes, lost planes, or property damage to the CASA Safety Officer immediately.

4. Legal / FAA Requirements

This site is NOT yet a FRIA. An FAA Remote ID module is legally required on your aircraft to fly here.

7. Parking & Driving (10 MPH)
