Welcome to the 2021 Colorado Pattern Challenge (CPC)! The CPC is hosted by the Arvada Associated Modelers. This is our 12th CPC in as many years and will take place at the AAM East Field. The CPC is 2-day, AA-sanctioned event for RC Aerobatics for Sportsman, Intermediate, Advanced, Masters, F3A Silver and F3A (P&F) (JSO combined). There are 6 rounds planned (4 Saturday / 2 Sunday) with contestant judging. Trophy/plaques will be awarded for 3 places, each class.  There are NO aircraft restrictions for Sportsman flyers.

Entry fee is $40 and $35 for Sportsman entrants. Lunch is provided on Saturday and beverages are included both days with your entry fee. The CPC also has many sponsors and prizes. Annually, we give away over $1500 in sponsorship merchandise to contestants and helpers. No one goes away empty-handed! There is also a complimentary BBQ planned for Saturday evening.
