Superstition Airpark, Arizona Model Aviators | RC Flying Field Weather
Live conditions for this AMA model airfield in Mesa, AZ, decoded from KIWA, 9 nm away, the closest station reporting right now, because this field's usual station KFFZ has no current report: wind, gusts, visibility, and an RC flyability read before you drive to the field.
The runway orientation (08/26) was measured from public aerial imagery and drives the live crosswind meter on this page. 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 KIWA, 9 nm away. Measured at the airport, not the field. This field's usual station KFFZ has no current report, so KIWA 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.
Runway winds & crosswind
Pre-filled with runway 08/26, measured from aerial imagery. Adjust it if your club flies different numbers and we'll remember your change on this device.
Current wind is variable at 7 mph: light and variable wind like this is generally not a factor for runway selection, and with no steady direction there is no head/tail or crosswind component to compute. Live numbers return automatically once a report includes a wind direction.
| Runway | Length | Surface | Head / Tail | Crosswind |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 08 | ~920 ft | Asphalt | - | - |
| 26 | ~920 ft | Asphalt | - | - |
Runway numbers are magnetic while reported winds are true north. Treat components as approximate for RC field use. Are these your club's verified runway numbers? Tell us and we'll show them for every visitor.
