Verified from official sources
Arrêté du 3 décembre 2020, article 5Version 1Effective -Verified 30 August 2026

In plain language

Aeromodelling club activity needs an activity location established in advance. That location is published in the aeronautical information, and the published entry states the maximum height that applies there — that published height is the height limit for the site.

Requirement as structured

Activities conducted within an aeromodelling association require an activity location (localisation d'activité) to be established beforehand. The activity location is published in the aeronautical information, which states in particular the maximum height applicable to the aircraft used for the activity concerned.
