This is a field requirement.  AMA does not have a requirement as such, but if the local field chooses to add something like this, they are free to do so.  In my opinion, they are very wise!  

However, when a requirement is given, they share the responsibility to provide sources of obtaining these items as well as a listing of what is acceptable and has worked well for them in the past.  

I would contact the event director and ask for this information.  I am very sure they will be happy to reply.

  Are you aware of the new requirement from Triple Tree Aerodrome for failsafe capability on the throttle for ALL participants at any of their events? Personally I agree that the concept seems sound, but my fellow modelers have many questions related to using them on aircraft/ FM radios.  There are several units available, but there is little information available concerning their use in aircraft.



  Could you weigh in on the subject or find out if the AMA has a position on this.  Any info you have would be helpful to the discussion.

  Thanks in advance.
