Welcome to the Official Website of the
LOUISVILLE RADIO CONTROL CLUB
Welcome to the Louisville Radio Control Club.
We are a non-profit organization serving nearly 400 members and guest who operate radio controlled model airplanes, gliders and helicopters. We are located south of downtown Louisville (KY), in the south-eastern corner of the McNeely Lake Park. We fly seven days a week, weather permitting. The club has lots to offer both members and spectators, making for a great place for local residents to fly and
enjoy the flying. The club features a well-kept 125 feet wide by 670' grass runway, with ample room to fly most model aircraft. We adhere to strict noise and safety regulations, making us a good neighbor to surrounding community. Anybody can come out to watch the flying, and we welcome new members. Pilots can join the club once they obtain a membership to the AMA, a national modelers association.
Pilot visitors are welcome to fly up to three (3) times without joining the club, provided they are insured through the AMA.
