Watch these scale model aircraft doing fancy aerobatics
Aerobatics scale models - what a fun thing to watch! Model planes doing aerobatics, which are both clever and exciting as they roar up and down mastered by their skilful operators.

If you have never seen one of these shows, then this is your chance to see this elite group of people, showing off their tricks. These scale models are incredibly intricate and are made in all colours and styles.

Getting a scale model ready for the event


This is the National Scale Championship and it promises to be both thrilling and inventive and it is held over three days.



These are the best radio-control pilots flying large scale aerobatic aircraft from all over Australia and they will compete in known and unknown rounds over the three days to determine the best in five levels of difficulty.



The freestyle event is aerobatics choreographed to music with greater artistic freedom. This promises to be a highlight for any aviation enthusiast. The field will be available from the weekend prior to the event and will be available for setup for camping on Sunday 24th September 2017.

Take off - there she goes!


Flying can commence on Monday 25th provided an airways radio is being monitored for full-size aircraft and RFDS activity (SAWA members have one and will be there from the 24th onwards to assist).



It is being held in Wagin and the Wagin township is about 2km away from the strip.
