BASS (AMA club #493) was formed in May of 1980, by a group of modelers with a common interest in radio controlled silent flight.  Our main purpose is to promote friendship among modelers and a better understanding of the construction and successful operation of radio controlled sailplanes and electric powered aircraft.
 
BASS holds fun fly sessions and club contests throughout the year.  The main BASS flying field is the Cal Ripken Jr. Field located at Villa Maria off Dulaney Valley Road in Towson. Club meetings are held on the second Thursday of each month at 7:00 p.m.  May through September we meet at Villa Maria, with flying at the field before the meeting.  October through March meetings are held at a school (location TBD) or virtually.  The specific dates for contest and fun flys are posted on the web site, facebook and through email.  Contests are open for winch, high start and electric launched sailplanes.  We also have Altitude Limited Electric Soaring and F3RES contests.  Participation is open to all ages and skill levels.

We would like you to join BASS!
 
Membership in BASS can be a rewarding experience, as a perfect complement to your interest in R/C flight. 
BASS Membership requires active membership in the Academy of Model Aeronautics (AMA) which provides related insurance coverage.
