About Montrose Model Aircraft Assosication

The MMAA is an Association of modelers organized for the purpose of flying, building, promotion, development, education and advancement of model and radio control aviation. We are a nonprofit, 501(c)(3) organization and as such any gifts made to MMAA are Tax Deductible.

The Montrose Model Aircraft Association was originally formed as the "Montrose Mini Flyers" in 1976. The club adopted it's current name and reorganized as a nonprofit corporation registered in the State of Colorado in 1996. Also in the same year we became an A.M.A. chartered club #3814.

The majority of our members fly R/C but we do have some interest in U-Control and Free Flight. Just about everything imaginable is flown from peanut scale to quarter scale, sailplanes, gliders, slope, 3D, electric, helicopters, multi-rotors, rubber and CO2.

Club meetings are held once a month, usually the second Monday of the month, and will be announced on this web site. We conduct our business first and time permitting we have a short demonstration about some aspect of building or flying airplanes. Weather permitting during the summer months we have various fun flies such as night flying, sailplane soaring, landing and target competitions, etc.

Guests & Non-Members

Guests and non-members are welcome at any time at our meetings or at the flying site. Guests must be AMA members to fly by themselves. All others can fly with an instructor on the buddy box. We do have a system where newcomers can experience the joy of flying using an instructor airplane and the buddy box system.
