Our History
Central
Carolina R/C Modelers is chartered club #1257 of the Academy of
Model Aeronautics. We are located in the Triad Area of North
Carolina just south of High Point. We strive to provide a safe
and enjoyable location to enjoy the sport of remote control
flying. Visitors and fellow flyers are always welcome to stop
in for some Southern Hospitality. Browse our web site for more
information.
The
Central Carolina R/C Modelers was formed in the early 70's by
several local radio control enthusiasts. The field was located
at a club member's back 40 until they outgrew the space. We
moved to our current location which covers around 10 acres in
May of 1991. We have a dedicated helicopter field with shelter
and landing pad. The clubhouse includes a well stocked kitchen
with all the comforts of home, a shaded area for those warm
summer days and a portable necessary room for quiet
contemplation.
Approximately
100 enthusiasts make up our membership with ages ranging from
18 to 80. Our interests include sailplanes, electrics, sport
planes, helicopters, and giant scale aircraft. Power is
provided by electric, gas, and glow. And information is in an
abundance. Just make a bouncy landing or a fancy takeoff and
the experts will offer all the advice you need! Our club
meetings are held at the field on the second Tuesday of each
month. Visitors are welcome.
Our
annual events include an Open House, Cub Day, Fun Flys, Pylon
Racing and a Benefit Fly In for the NC Aviation Museum. During
the year members make club trips to area swap shops and fly
ins, Southeastern Model Show in Perry, GA, the Toledo Expo in
Ohio, and the Joe Nall Giant Scale Fly In in Woodruff,
SC.
For
now, please check out our Events Section. We would love to have
you come by!!
Thanks
for stopping by the web page. If you are in the area, please
stop in and say hi.
Happy
Flying Ya'll!
