[bullet] **NOTE** This site is an archive site for RDRC photos, videos, history, etc. and was built from bits and pieces of the old site that ran from 1993-2012. While it is functional and fairly current, the primary RDRC club website is at www.RD-RC.com. If you have any old photos, event info, or bits of historical info, drop me a note at wb4iuy@gmail.com. The Members Only section does still contain info on field lease renewal, noise ordinance, old rosters, and incorporation info. The photo uploader is functional for membership photo uploads to this website. If you don't see a menu on the left, click HERE. Thanks!

[bullet] Raleigh Durham R/C is one of the oldest clubs in NC, having been in existence since 1958. RDRC is AMA Chartered Club #733, and IMAA Charter #724. The members of RDRC have a wide range of interests including Giant Scale, Sport Scale, Sail Planes, Electric Flight, Helicopters, and Sport Flying. We welcome beginners as well as experienced modelers. Click the [Club Information] link on the left for more info.

[bullet] Our flying field is located north of Rolesville NC,just off hiway 401. We have 2 runways, one paved and the other is closely cut grass. The field is open with clear approaches making it excellent for beginners. We are located in a rural area, far from housing developments.

[ama logo] Our club is chartered as club #733 by the Academy of Model Aeronautics (AMA) which is the national sanctioning body for Model Aviation in the U.S. They are also the insurance provider for Model Aviators across the U.S.

[bullet] The purpose of our club is to have fun! Therefore, we have a minimum of rules and regulations. Those that we do have are intended to promote safety, and to ensure consideration for each other and for our neighbors. You'll usually find R/C action at the field on any decent day. The only flying restrictions at our site are:

- NO FLYING BEFORE 9 AM ANY DAY OF THE WEEK
- NO flying over people on the paths around the field
- NO FLYING GAS OR GLOW BEFORE 11:30 AM ON SUNDAY

These simple rules are to keep our non-RC friends surrounding the field happy. We ask if you damage some of the crops in the surrounding fields, report it as soon as possible.
