Twin Cities Radio Controllers is a family-oriented club with many family activities. We are chartered club #383 with the Academy of Model Aeronautics (AMA). We host 2 float fly events each year (May and September) on Bush Lake in Bloomington, MN as well as several low pressure, fun fly events for members. The Model Flying Air Park consists of 40 acres of membership owned property zoned aviation/recreation by the county. The flying field has 2 intersecting graded and asphalt paved runways that are 300' by 40' each. There is an extra 100'deep mowed grass overrun with one grass runway. The wind is always blowing down one of the runways! There is an alternate flying site at the Scott County Fairgrounds. Click here for directions to the field.
