Moonport Modelers 1 — RC Flying Field Weather
Live conditions for this AMA model airfield in Titusville, FL, decoded from KTTS, 9 nm away— the closest station reporting right now, because this field's usual station KTIX has no current report — wind, gusts, visibility, and an RC flyability read before you drive to the field.
The club describes a grass flying surface. The runway orientation (18/36) was measured from public aerial imagery and drives the live crosswind meter on this page. The site is an FAA-Recognized Identification Area (FRIA), where eligible members can fly without Remote ID broadcast equipment. Its FAA fixed-site agreement altitude is 200 ft AGL — an agreement value, not an airspace clearance. Published field hours: Sun up to sun down. No gas power before 8 am Mon-Fri and 9 am Sat-Sun. 12 other AMA fields sit within 50 miles.
Good flying weather
A manageable breeze for most sport models and trainers; very light foamies may get pushed around.
Based on KTTS, 9 nm away — measured at the airport, not the field. This field's usual station KTIX has no current report, so KTTS is the closest station reporting now.
⚠️ Weather shown is from the nearest full-scale reporting station, not measured at the field. Not for flight decisions — assess wind and sky conditions on site and follow the AMA Safety Code and your club's field rules.
