I'm not really sure if this is the best place to post these, so I apologise if it's in the wrong spot.

I just enjoy RC aircraft and also photography, so thought I'd throw up some photos of some planes from our local field. I'm still a noob at RC, still building my first trainer, but getting inspiration from my local airfield by going down and photographing the club guys flying their aircraft.

So from todays flying, while it was a bit quiet, there was a range of props. All had successful days flying, with no mishaps. We usually have a turbine or two but after a couple landing mishaps last weekend they might be taking a break hehe.

A few aerobatic planes were on hand, a biplane and a couple of trainers also took to the skies.

This Australian WW2 replica CAC Wirraway had its maiden flight today, and got back to mother earth in one piece.

This P-51 Mustang looked great on the ground and the air.

Thanks. Sorry bout the delayed reply, life's been hectic!

I've got a canon 20D at the moment, only using the 75-300mm kit lens but looking forward to upgrading soon as the kit lens is a bit ordinary! I really enjoy watching and photographing RC planes as much as flying them.

Just a few more shots from the Scale Competition this weekend.

I agree! Those planes are something close to spectacular as well. Very nice group of them too! I just love the WWII planes. Can't wait to have some myself. Thanks for sharing!!!
