Learn to Fly!

 Once your application and fee have been submitted you can begin by reading our Flagler Rams Instruction PDF and complete RAMS RC Flight Instruction Manual. Next, you will meet with a club Instructor who will guide you through basic concepts such as: remote transmitter controls, aircraft's control surfaces, flying techniques, and general airmanship. The list of current club instructors with their contact information can be found in the RAMS RC Flight Instruction Manual.

Note: Limited Introductory lessons can be arranged on an ad-hoc basis prior to application and fee submission.

 Try flying a life-like computerized airplane on the Club's simulator.  

 Using the Club's Buddy Box system, a Club Instructor will be your co-pilot as

you experience actual in-the-air flight control with a Club trainer airplane.

After becoming proficient on the Club's Trainer Aircraft, the Club instructor will disconnect the Buddy Box from your controller and let you perform a solo flight.  

 During your Graduation Event, you will be prepared to preform the following skills on your own:

• Taxi the airplane
• Successfully take-off
• Fly in the indicated pattern
• Prepare to land the aircraft while following set standards
• Successfully touching-down and rolling to a stop
• Taxi back to your starting position
• Perform all above skills while adhering to club bylaws

You have earned your wings and are now an R/C Pilot!
