Default AMA fields that exclude AMA groups.

I know its every clubs right. No 3D or drones allowed. But they ask the AMA for all their protection. Should all the clubs be promoting and not excluding AMA groups.

Should the clubs that exclude AMA groups / members be permitted to be allowed to have all AMA protections given to their field? Like events, Should they be excluded from additional insured events. Should they be allowed to receive AMA grants? I just don't get an AMA Club that would not want to welcome AMA flyers even if they fly 3D or Multirotors.

The biggest question is, do clubs exclude these groups due to they don't like the group or could it be a hate of these groups. I'm not against on having an event like a warbird only event. I love watching those high dollar scale warbirds. Its not for me to spend the funds on the heavy warbirds. I tried it but I got board flying in circles. Its not that I don't have the building skills to build. My first scratch airplane was a Ninja Star.

I prefer to fly good flying ARF aircraft. Sport, profile, gliders and multirotor. Don't forget the 3D group is clam free for the past 6 years according to the AMA. So it cant be a safety concern.

I think this AMA fields can turn out to be a real concern to the AMA.
