The Radio Control Combat Association (RCCA) is a National Organization dedicated to furthering the sport of Radio
Control Combat. The RCCA is the recognized Special Interest Group (SIG)of the AMA. The dues are $15 per year.

Why should you join? What do you get out of it for your dues?

The RCCA is the largest organization for Radio Control Combat in the United States. It is regarded as the official voice of
combat fliers by the AMA. The AMA has special interest groups for many forms of modeling. By looking at the ranks of
a SIG's membership the AMA can tell at a glance what percentage of their membership is interested in this aspect of the
hobby. So the first reason to become a RCCA member is to have your voice counted, your presence known, and your
interest clearly identified. If there were no members or a very small membership the AMA, it's Chartered Clubs and Flying
sites would have little reason to have any interest in you - you would be all by yourself. Membership in RCCA gives you
the credibility and strength of a National organization, recognized as an official Special Interest Group of the AMA..

The RCCA is also your voice to the AMA in making rules that are nationally consistent. In other words you can be assured
that wherever you go in the United States to fly combat if you go to an RCCA or AMA â€œrule bookâ€� contest you will
be flying the same rules as you do at home.

The RCCA has the most active web site for Radio Control Combat on the Internet. Today there are quite a few discussion
forums but far and away the biggest, most active, and most content rich is the RCCAâ€™s official web site. Not only can
you gain a tremendous amount of technical and tactical knowledge you can also keep up with members in your area, check
the rankings for who is leading the points races so you can follow what type of equipment they fly, and finally the RCCA
board of directors uses this forum, among others, to keep the membership informed as to what is happening in regards to
our sport.

Please make your voice known, become a member of an organization dedicated to supporting, serving and protecting your
RC Combat interests.
