AMA NATIONAL MODEL AIRCRAFT SAFETY CODE

Effective January 1, 2011

A. GENERAL: A model aircraft is a non-human-carrying aircraft

capable of sustained ﬂ ight in the atmosphere. It may not exceed

limitations of this code and is intended exclusively for sport,

recreation and/or competition. All model ﬂ ights must be conducted

in accordance with this safety code and any additional rules speciﬁ c

to the ﬂ ying site.

1. Model aircraft will not be ﬂ own:

(a) In a careless or reckless manner.

(b) At a location where model aircraft activities are prohibited.

2. Model aircraft pilots will:

(a) Yield the right of way to all man carrying aircraft.

(b) See and avoid all aircraft and a spotter must be used

when appropriate. (AMA Document #540-D-See and Avoid

Guidance.)

level within three (3) miles of an airport, without notifying

the airport operator.

(d) Not interfere with operations and trafﬁ c patterns at any

airport, heliport or seaplane base except where there is a

mixed use agreement.

(e) Not exceed a takeoff weight, including fuel, of 55 pounds

unless in compliance with the AMA Large Model Aircraft

program. (AMA Document 520-A)

(f) Ensure the aircraft is identiﬁ ed with the name and address

or AMA number of the owner on the inside or afﬁ xed to the

outside of the model aircraft. (This does not apply to model

aircraft ﬂ own indoors).

(g) Not operate aircraft with metal-blade propellers or with

gaseous boosts except for helicopters operated under the

provisions of AMA Document #555.

(h) Not operate model aircraft while under the inﬂ uence of

alcohol or while using any drug which could adversely affect

the pilot’s ability to safely control the model.

(i) Not operate model aircraft carrying pyrotechnic devices

which explode or burn, or any device which propels a pro-

jectile or drops any object that creates a hazard to persons

or property.

Exceptions:

• Free Flight fuses or devices that burn producing

smoke and are securely attached to the model

aircraft during ﬂ ight.

• Rocket motors (using solid propellant) up to a

G-series size may be used provided they remain

attached to the model during ﬂ ight. Model rockets

may be ﬂ own in accordance with the National Model

Rocketry Safety Code but may not be launched from

model aircraft.

• Ofﬁ cially designated AMA Air Show Teams (AST) are

authorized to use devices and practices as deﬁ ned

within the Team AMA Program Document (AMA

Document #718).

(j) Not operate a turbine-powered aircraft, unless in compliance

with the AMA turbine regulations. (AMA Document #510-A).

3. Model aircraft will not be ﬂ own in AMA sanctioned events, air shows

or model demonstrations unless:

(a) The aircraft, control system and pilot skills have successfully

demonstrated all maneuvers intended or anticipated prior to

the speciﬁ c event.

(b) An inexperienced pilot is assisted by an experienced pilot.

4. When and where required by rule, helmets must be properly worn

and fastened. They must be OSHA, DOT, ANSI, SNELL or NOCSAE

approved or comply with comparable standards.

B. RADIO CONTROL (RC)

1. All pilots shall avoid ﬂ ying directly over unprotected people, vessels,

vehicles or structures and shall avoid endangerment of life and

property of others.

2. A successful radio equipment ground-range check in accordance

with manufacturer’s recommendations will be completed before the

ﬁ rst ﬂ ight of a new or repaired model aircraft.

3. At all ﬂ ying sites a safety line(s) must be established in front of which

all ﬂ ying takes place (AMA Document #706-Recommended Field

Layout):

(a) Only personnel associated with ﬂ ying the model aircraft are

allowed at or in front of the safety line.

(b) At air shows or demonstrations, a straight safety line must be

established.

spectators.

(d) Intentional ﬂ ying behind the safety line is prohibited.

4. RC model aircraft must use the radio-control frequencies currently

allowed by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). Only

individuals properly licensed by the FCC are authorized to operate

equipment on Amateur Band frequencies.

5. RC model aircraft will not operate within three (3) miles of any

pre-existing ﬂ ying site without a frequency-management agreement

(AMA Documents #922-Testing for RF Interference; #923- Fre-

quency Management Agreement)

6. With the exception of events ﬂ own under ofﬁ cial AMA Competition

Regulations, excluding takeoff and landing, no powered model may

be ﬂ own outdoors closer than 25 feet to any individual, except for

the pilot and the pilot’s helper(s) located at the ﬂ ight line.

7. Under no circumstances may a pilot or other person touch a model

aircraft in ﬂ ight while it is still under power, except to divert it from

striking an individual. This does not apply to model aircraft ﬂ own

indoors.

8. RC night ﬂ ying requires a lighting system providing the pilot with a

clear view of the model’s attitude and orientation at all times.

9. The pilot of a RC model aircraft shall:

(a) Maintain control during the entire ﬂ ight, maintaining visual

contact without enhancement other than by corrective lenses

prescribed for the pilot.

(b) Fly using the assistance of a camera or First-Person View

(FPV) only in accordance with the procedures outlined in AMA

Document #550.

Please see your local or regional modeling association’s guidelines

for proper, safe operation of your model aircraft.
