Club Facilities

The Flying Field

  • The most important part of our club is the flying field which is a well mown flat grass strip around 150 metres by 40 metres running SW - NE and is large enough for almost any normal model.
  • There are several model tables outside of the Tower which are used for flight preparation of aircraft and starting IC models.
  • There is a charging bench outside the Tower with numerous external electric charging points.
  • We are open 7 days a week, 365 days a year for those club members who wish to fly whenever the fancy takes them.
  • We have several seats and benches outside where you can sit in the sun with a mug of tea and watch the flying.

The Tower

  • We have a kitchen with excellent facilities and we normally have hot & cold food available during members events.
  • Tea & Coffee is available whenever the Tower is open.
  • There are outside electric hook-ups for caravans and a grass area is set aside for those who wish to camp during weekend events.
  • There are toilets (both M & F) in the Tower and hot & cold water is available therein.
  • Model building facilities are available upstairs in the Tower.
  • There is also a workshop where repairs can be undertaken after gravity interferes with a flight.
