Murray Radio Control Modelers, Inc. (AMA Charter #1728) is open to any individual who is interested in building, flying or just enjoying radio controlled model planes.

Club meetings are held the second Saturday of each month at 9:30 AM at locations to be announced on the CONTACT US and UPCOMING EVENTS  pages.. Summer meetings are conducted at the flying field. ( Map Link above ) Club membership dues are $50.00 per calendar year, and are used to maintain the flying facility and property lease and to cover the cost of field maintenance during the flying season. Individuals belonging to the club  must also maintain a current AMA (
Academy of Model Aeronautics)  membership primarily for insurance coverage and other benefits afforded AMA chartered clubs.

The Murray R/C Modelers annually host a fun fly, a swap meet and one or two field days for local cub scouts and schools.
The club presently has one sanctioned instructor to assist those just learning to fly radio control and can provide access to a training plane if the individual does not yet have his own plane prepared to fly. Training is accomplished with the aid of "Buddy Boxes" and voice direction. During the warmer months, club members may be found flying daily, although Saturdays and Sundays generally will have the heaviest attendance at the field. Members come from varied backgrounds and model interests ranging from SCALE to SPORT to COMBAT    to 3D are all represented. While everyone is welcome to observe, flying is restricted to club members, their guests with AMA membership, and student fliers working with the certified instructors. Questions and / or requests for information may be directed to any of the club officers.

The Club's new flying field and facilities located on Murray/Calloway County Airport property are now fully operational. The field includes an 80' x 600' mown grass strip, 5 flight stations, safety barriers, pavilion, bleachers and extensive parking.
