Seven Lakes Aero Modelers - Auman Farms — RC Flying Field Weather

Live conditions for this AMA model airfield in West End, NC, decoded from KHFF, 13 nm away— the closest station reporting right now, because this field's usual station KSOP 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 site is an FAA-Recognized Identification Area (FRIA), where eligible members can fly without Remote ID broadcast equipment. 12 other AMA fields sit within 50 miles.

POOR

Poor RC flying conditions

Most clubs stand down in this weather — high winds or active weather make control and landings risky.

Factors: thunderstorms in the area.

Based on KHFF, 13 nm away — measured at the airport, not the field. This field's usual station KSOP has no current report, so KHFF 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.
