This hobby can be more than a pastime. For some, it's a passion.
Learning to fly is a challenging but rewarding skill. But it's not easy - it takes time, money and commitment.
But your initial decision is not what aircraft to buy, it's where can you fly?
Join a club.
If you wish fly safely, legally and reduce the risk of crashing your aircraft: join a model aircraft club.
You learn to fly in a safe environment with experienced instructors.
Moreover, is a fantastic way of accessing knowledge and experience.
The club has a dedicated membership who have spent decades refining their knowledge and skills in this hobby.
Over it's history, KMMFC has introduced and taught 100's of people, ages 10 - 80+ years to model aircraft flying.
Plus, it brings lifetime friendships with people from all walks of life.

We recommend visiting a model flying club BEFORE investing in equipment. This way you can see what is involved, speak to members for advice, and then decide if the hobby is for you.
