Model Planes

Are there rules on flying RC planes?

I recently entered the world of RC planes and was curious about any rules or laws on flying planes. For example flying in parks, schools or even open fields, and also if the plane is electric or nitro powered.
I just don’t want to fly in a school on the weekend and get arrested for flying a nitro plane.

This is if you are in the United States. Generally, you do not fly within 6 miles of an airport. You avoid flying in crowded area. Like in malls, a huge concert, or like outside the city shopping mall. No matter how experienced you are. You have to take into consideration of mechanical failures.
You do not fly over freeways. If your Aircraft comes down onto a car, the driver could freak out (we give idiots licenses now) and crash because their precious car hit something.
Nitro or electric, it doesn’t matter. The size does however. If it is too big, it is required to be flown in a certified air field. If it is small, a park will do.
Be sure to fly in places where there isn’t a lot of people and that you are experienced enough to fly. It has happened before. Do not learn in parks where people are constantly gawking at your aircraft and steadily is starting a crowd. If you do not know how to fly and that aircraft hits someone, you are in deep trouble. So fly in parks where there are a few people, with enough space to crash if you have to.

You are allowed to fly in the school as long as you are not trespassing and you are allowed to be there and there aren’t any children running after your aircraft. It has personally happened to me, and their parents are stupid enough to let them touch the Helicopter blade when it was spinning. My defense, “Why didn’t you watch your child like you’re suppose to?”
So to conclude, use your best judgment. The important idea is to not get anyone hurt.
