AMA National Model Aircraft Safety Code
Academy of Model Aeronautics
National Model Aircraft Safety Code
Effective January 1, 2018
A model aircraft is a non-human-carrying device capable of sustained ight within visual line of sight of the pilot or spotter(s). It may not exceed limitations of this
code and is intended exclusively for sport, recreation, education and/or competition. All model ights must be conducted in accordance with this safety code and
related AMA guidelines, any additional rules specic to the ying site, as well as all applicable laws and regulations.
As an AMA member I agree:
• I will not y a model aircraft in a careless or reckless manner.
• I will not interfere with and will yield the right of way to all human-
carrying aircraft using AMA’s See and Avoid Guidance and a spotter when
appropriate.
• I will not operate any model aircraft while I am under the inuence of
alcohol or any drug that could adversely affect my ability to safely control
the model.
• I will avoid ying directly over unprotected people, moving vehicles, and
occupied structures.
• I will y Free Flight (FF) and Control Line (CL) models in compliance with
AMA’s safety programming.
• I will maintain visual contact of an RC model aircraft without enhancement
other than corrective lenses prescribed to me. When using an advanced
ight system, such as an autopilot, or ying First-Person View (FPV), I will
comply with AMA’s Advanced Flight System programming.
• I will only y models weighing more than 55 pounds, including fuel, if
certied through AMA’s Large Model Airplane Program.
• I will only y a turbine-powered model aircraft in compliance with AMA’s
Gas Turbine Program.
• I will not y a powered model outdoors closer than 25 feet to any individual,
except for myself or my helper(s) located at the ightline, unless I am taking
off and landing, or as otherwise provided in AMA’s Competition Regulation.
• I will use an established safety line to separate all model aircraft operations
from spectators and bystanders.
