does anyone know a good place to fly in NYC?
 

So im relatively new to r/c airplanes. I live in New York and have had NO luck trying to find a club that will help me fly. If any of you veterans know a atleast an okay club near Astoria, it would help so much for you to tell me!

RE: does anyone know a good place to fly in NYC?
 

Probably the only place that has the area for an RC field is Staten Island or New Jersey. Perhaps in Long Island or Conn, but that is probably a long haul for you, at least from Astoria.

Go here

and plug in your zip code and see what comes of it.
