Before

Waller Park is a scenic public park in Santa Maria that some RC pilots use for casual flying, especially with smaller electric aircraft and lightweight drones. Because the park is often busy with families, sports, and community activities, aircraft under 250 grams are strongly recommended unless you have special permission or are flying during very quiet times. Pilots should always fly safely, stay clear of people and park activity, and follow all FAA recreational flying rules while operating in the area. Bringing your FAA TRUST certificate is recommended, and any aircraft requiring Remote ID must comply with current FAA regulations. Since Waller Park is not a dedicated RC airfield, flyers are expected to use good judgment and avoid crowded conditions whenever possible. Respecting other park visitors and keeping flights low-risk helps maintain the area as a safe and enjoyable casual flying location for everyone.
