As of Thursday, October 28th, 2021 the Indianapolis RC South flying field off of Worthsville Road is closed in preparation for development of the Grand Vista subdivision.
This flying field was established way back in 1975, so a lot of fond memories were made during those 46 years!
As we continue searching for a new location, members are encouraged to fly at the Johnson Co RC Flyers field near Camp Atterbury – https://jcrcf.com/, or at the Indianapolis RC Modelers field near Morristown, IN – http://indyrcmodelers.com/.
