Notice of Proposed Rule Making and FAA Remote ID Requirements

"FAA! We got a report of an ID-less non-registered DRONE!"

The FAA has issued their Notice of Proposed Rule Making to inform the public of the Rules they want to enact concering remote ID requirements for remote control airplanes and drones.  They are currently incorporating many of the comments received by stakeholders, including hobbyists. The good news is that our hobby looks like it will survive Big Government!

No, it is not only a concern for quadcopters, this affects everything over 250 grams that flies. This article won't attempt to provide a "Cliff's Notes" easy to digest outline of tte rules, the job has been done already and can be read here.

Flying

We have one of the nicest flying facilities in the area.  With a grass 500 feet North-South runway and a grass 1000 feet East-West runway pilots will always find an open flight station. Each runway has a covered pavillion, and the main runway pavillion has a gas grill, electric fans, spot lights, and a flight simulator set up for care-free practice with the "reset" button.  

Noise restrictions are not much of a concern at the club as there are no neighbors to annoy out in the country. Loud mufflers? Who cares! The North-South runway is primarily used for helicopter and multirotor flying, with most fixed wing aircraft taking place on the East-West runway.  The best part is that the sun is at your back pretty much all day. 

If it flys, bring it out.  Electrics, nitro, gas, giant scale, foamies, helis, multicopters, we do it all.

Ground Vehicles

Welcome to the Treasure Coast's only outdoor off road race track. Weather permitting, the track is open only for sponsored events. So bring out your 1/10 scale buggies, truggies, and short course trucks as well as 1/8 scale buggies. 

Boating

We have a covered pavilion next to the floating dock for our boating and float flying enthusiasts. The post is well-stocked, and fishing is allowed - but don't take what you catch - catch and release only! Occasionally, we get a croc or two in the pond, so keep a keen eye when out by the water.
