The RDRC Field

!!STOP!! If you don't see a menu on the left, click HERE to jump to the front and begin your RDRC Experience! RC Video Feeds added, check the 'Miscellaneous' section of the LH menu for these new webcasts.

Above and below are pictures of the RDRC Field taken on 8/14/2006, just after the new fencing, gates, and flight stations were installed. Wow, what a fresh look for the field! You can see better and larger pictures of the area by clicking on the following links for Picture 1, Picture 2, and Picture 3. The new galvanized chain link fencing will provide a durable safety barrier for public visitors & the parking area. There is a removable gate for use during events, to keep pilot access to the field very simple.

There are now 5 new flight stations in place, complete with concrete pads for the pilots standing comfort in each station. You can also see better pictures of these by clicking on the following links to see Picture 1 and Picture 2. Constructed of salt treated timber, these stations should last for many fun-filled years! Check out this slideshow of PICS from the Field.

Here are several great aerial photos that have been taken and/or enhanced by RDRC members. You'll get a birds-eye view of our paved and grass runways, parking area, shelter and storage facilities, and beautiful expanse of flying space. By clicking on the following links, you can view several great aerial shots, taken from several angles. Some of these were taken before our most recent upgrades, but give a good feel for our awesome rural flying site. The first pic was taken during our Fall Fly-For-Tots Fly-In, Sept '06. The aerial photos are Picture 1, Picture 2, Picture 3, Picture 4, Picture 5, and Picture 6.

RDRC's Frequency Control Board accomodates everyone with AMA legal frequencies, from the oldest legal gear to the new. We have frequency control pins and hangers for the legal 27 mhz frequencies, the old 53 mhz 6 meter amateur radio (ham radio) frequencies, the new 50 mhz amateur radio frequencies, and all narrow-band 72 mhz frequencies. By clicking on the following links, you can view a few different shots of our frequency board. The frequency board pics are Picture 1, Picture 2, and Picture 3.
