YORK AREA RC CLUB & STOVERSTOWN FLIERS are two clubs there. To find an instructor try the here @ RC Universe. Go to RC Community @ the top of the page, then RC Locater Tools, Then click on what you want to find. If that doesn't help find one of the two clubs that I put at the beginning of this post and see if there is someone there that would be able to help you.

York Area is about 150 miles for him. He lives roughly 30 miles north of Philadelphia. The one that comes to mind is in King of Prussia at the park. For the life of me I cannot remember the name though

You can also go to the following link and put in your zip code and get clubs much closer to you.

Also track down a local hobby shop (LHS). They are usually good sources of info for local clubs that may not be listed on the AMA and RCU sites

Actually a quick check on the RCU search shows 4 clubs within 20 miles or so of Lansdale, 3 of them multi interest
