We are a group of radio control aircraft enthusiasts flying out of Inter River park, located in the beautiful North Vancouver foothills between Seymour River and Lynn Creek  Our members fly planes, helicopters and drones. Models are both gas and electric.  

We lease our field from the North Vancouver Recreation and Culture Commission and club members have flying privileges year round at Inter River Park.  We enjoy a fun friendly atmosphere, we host special events (fun-fly, summer barbecue) and we publish a club newsletter. We are growing and always excited to meet new members!
