CNY Drones events are planned & run by members of the Academy of Model Aeronautics, a not-for-profit, national community-based organization dedicated to the promotion of model aviation as a recognized sport as well as a recreational activity. We adhere to all AMA Safety Guidelines in addition to FAA Regulations in order to promote a safe flying community. The majority of our events are indoors using an abundance of redundant safety precautions.
