Academy of Model Aeronautics Events |
October 9-11 & 24, Various Locations |
Model aviation takes to the skies across the region this October with two unique events. On October 9-11, the 46th Annual Golden State Stunt Championships returns to Folsom Lake State Recreation Area in Granite Bay, where control-line pilots will showcase precision aerobatics, including loops, figure eights and inverted flight. Then on October 24, the Bigwood OctoberFast Warbird Pylon Race brings high-speed action to Sacramento Area Modelers, where radio-controlled WWII-era Warbirds race around a three-pylon course at speeds reaching up to 180 mph. Both events offer a chance to experience the skill, craftsmanship and excitement of competitive model aviation right here in the region. For specific event details, visit the links below.
