1303 E. Greenhurst,
Nampa, Id 83686 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------We have a few basic RULES: Remember that the rubber band planes have the right of way. 1. No street shoes on the gym floor. 2. The main floor is restricted to 1 oz (around 28 -29g) or a Wing loading of 2 oz per sq ft or less for RC.This means that the Mustangs, Champs, Mosquitos, T-28 , Sukhoi, etc. will need to go upstairs to the east gym. Rubber is not restricted by weight at this time, but please try to stay within the main floor rules. Rubber exceptions should contact Tom before flying
The (west gym) is available for (Pico, Nano, and Micro helicopters only) The specifications for these are: Micro-helicopters: 130mm main rotor or under Micro-quads: diagonally from motor shaft to motor shaft is less than 140 mm. Good examples are: (1SQ or 1si by helli-max, Dart or protox by Estes, EthosPQ by Ares, Kodo by Dromida , Nano or Pico QX by Blade)
The (east gym) is for planes that are too heavy for the main gym.
3. Limit your RC flights to 3 to 4 minutes per flight, promoting shorter flights allows more people to fly.
Thanks to Li-poly batteries we can fly up to 15 minutes
with some of the new planes like the Parkzone Vapor or Cessna and
others. 4. RC pilots are to use all skill and prior planning to ensure that they do not fly over the pit area. The planes need to be far enough out in front to make sure no unforeseen incident can imperil the planes or bodies of others. 5. Pilots are responsible for their own frequency control. Check with all other RC owners so no one crashes someone else’s plane inadvertently.
NEW ---->
6.
Tom will survey the group
each time and see if there are any ultra lightweight flyers present, The rules are not to restrict our fun but to keep a place for us to fly. We must ALL take the responsibility to keep our environment safe. Tom
There have been a lot of suggestions about rules that others have used
across the nation and world. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Discontinued model planes that are
ok
for the main floor. Any questions or concerns contact Tom or Bryan.

Attention These schools have been nice enough to allow us access to their Gyms for the purpose of enjoying our hobby. We also have access to the restrooms. That is the extent of our access, therefore please keep yourself and any children or other guests in these areas. The rest of the school grounds including classrooms are off limits. If we or our guests violate this rule we may not be allowed access to these schools in the future. We appreciate everyone's cooperation in this. Remember: No street shoes on the gym floor. Wear only rubber bottom shoes that have not been worn outside and/or bring slippers - if you forget to bring them, you can always run around in your socks.
