Default AMA equivalent in Germany

Guten Tag,

Does anyone know what the equivalent organization of the Academy of Model Aeronautics is in Germany? Are RC heli pilots required to be a member of any organization in order to fly at sanctioned events in Germany?

Vielen Dank.
Mark

Hi Mark,
although I am from Austria I do know the regulations in Germany:

As a pilot of RC-Helis you don´t have to be in an organisation like the AMA.
You need an (RC-Heli-Modell-) insurance and your RC-Heli is not allowed to be over 5KG of weight.

You are free to become a member (or guest) of a "Modell-Flying-Club" and fly on their ground
or you can do "wild flying": everywhere where you have enough, free and safe airspace where you don´t disturb anyone else or where is no potential (high) risk of hurting someone else.

But reqirement is always a proper insurance, here are the two biggest:
DMO http://www.deutsche-modellsport-orga...cherungen.html
DMFV http://dmfv.aero/mitgliedschaft/downloads/ (Versicherungen im DMFV)

Mark,

thanks, may I ask at which events you (or a pilot of yours) is supposed to take place, cause here in Austria are some very intersting meetings too.

PM welcome.

Jörg
