Drone Rules for C.A.M.P.O. Campo Aero Modelismo Parque das Oliveiras
Fly Status: Private/Club Managed. The C.A.M.P.O. (Campo Aero Modelismo), often referenced near the Parque das Oliveiras region in Ribeirão Preto, is a private-use airfield. It is not a public park, and flight is strictly limited to members and invited guests who follow internal safety protocols.
Explanation This is a technical facility, not a recreational area. Because it operates in a peri-urban environment, it is subject to specific safety management to prevent interference with nearby residential zones and general airspace. "Social acceptance" here relies entirely on your membership status and adherence to the club's code of conduct.
Conditions for Authorized Flight:
Club Membership: Access is restricted. You must be a member or have specific permission from the board to access the airfield. Showing up unannounced is a violation of club privacy and security.
Safety Infrastructure: The field features specific areas for engine testing, flight lines, and safety zones. Deviating from these is a high-risk activity that results in immediate expulsion.
Operational Control: The club maintains specific flight corridors. You must coordinate your frequency and flight timing with other pilots present to avoid collisions and radio interference.
How to be "Socially Accepted" (and Legal-Proof):
Authorization: Contact the club’s board or local COBRA representative for Ribeirão Preto before planning any visit.
Legal Compliance: Ensure your drone or model is registered in the ANAC SISANT.
Mandatory SARPAS NG: Under the ICA 100-40 (2026) regulation, you must file a SARPAS NG flight plan for every operation. Showing an approved plan is your primary proof of legitimacy if questioned by local security.
