Second annual Indy RC Super Swap
We will be returning with this event in late 2026… here is info from last year. We will update with the new info when we are ready. Check back!
First Annual(we hope) Indy RC Super Swap!;
Please be patient with us as this is our first attempt, but I think we have all the ingredients for a great event. Easy access to the location via I70/US40 and SR9 (google map here), a good amount of space to accomodate a lot of folks, coffe and donuts and (hopefully) lots of bargains on RC stuff!!
Here is a downloadable flyer you can print or pass on to your friends… please do. The more the merrier.
Please contact us for any needed info per the email shown above. Hope to see you there!

The following event is for club members only…
The Common Club Airplane Program (CCAP) is back for 2026 but paired down a bit. Are current plan is to have 5 dates this year. The following info is from last year but will be updated once plans are finalized. Expect the first event to occur in April!!
From last year:
This year we are changing things up a bit in order to allow for more participation. Here is how it will work.
A CCAP contest will occur on each of the dates listed below. Each of these dates are on a Saturday (unless otherwise noted) with the event starting promptly at 1PM. “Rain date” is the following day.
At 11AM on the day of the event, we will draw from a list of events at random from the following two lists. There are 5 “luck” and 5 “skill” events. We will start with a luck event on the April date and then will alternate to a skill event in May and continue to alternate on each successive contest date. Since the events are all known events, and no one will know which is occuring until that day, all members with the Common Club Airplane can participate… even the organizers! This two hour window allows for the organizers and member to get setup for the event.
Here are the possible events (click on each to see more detailed rules).
