MAAC SAFETY GUIDELINES (CHANGES)

Unread post by retiredVTT » Fri Nov 02, 2012 5:06 pm

Page 6 of the November 2012 Model Aviation (MAAC Mag) states a couple of changes to the MAAC Safety Guidlines, effective July 28, 2012

You can read the official wording of the changes in the article....

The unofficial reading says that you are now ALLOWED to operate an R/C system within 4 kms of a pre-existing RC aircraft club flying site as long as you are operating a 2.4 GHz spread spectrum radio system. Those not using a 2.4 GHz system still need a frequency sharing agreement with the RC field.

and,

A MAAC Frequency Board, or Transmitter Impound, or other frequency control system, is NOT required at a flying location for those flyers using a 2.4 GHz spread spectrum system. It is still a requirement for those not using a 2.4 Ghz system.
