2025-26 Gold Leader Club

This year, BCMA is celebrating our 38th Year Anniversary where many radio control model aviation enthusiasts continue to come together to support the participation in this hobby and like the AMA, we want this hobby to grow! The club is now located in the Kingston Downs Property, near Bartow County. The field is about 60 miles North/West of Atlanta and the gate entrance address is 502 Bass Ferry Road Rome GA 30161. Bartow County Model Aviation (BCMA) is a group of 70+ like-minded aviation enthusiasts ranging from teenagers through their 80's blending the craftsmanship of model building, use of innovative technologies, and honing the skills to safely fly model aircraft like Airplanes, EDF Jets, Gliders, Helicopters and multi-rotors Drones; using both battery-powered electric and fossil-fuel motors.

  • The ONLY access to the Field is by way of Bass Ferry Road STARTING from Hwy 411 and Biddy Road SE.
  • This is a gated entrance into the Kingston Downs property and requires an access code to open.
  • The field is located 1.5 miles from the gate.
  • Kingston Downs Property has a SPEED LIMIT of 25 mph.
  • Do Not exceed the speed limit and be aware of ALL Kingston Downs activities.
  • The runway is 600 feet long and 60 feet wide and oriented East to West. The pilot faces North so, the sun is rarely an issue.
  • The Geotexile Runway measures 385' x 45' which leaves approximately 50 feet overrun on the west side.

  • This leaves a Grass Runway alongside the GeoTex that measures 550' x 60'.
