- GIANT SCALE RADIO CONTROL RACES
RETURN TO ASHTABULA COUNTY AIRPORT.
On August 15 thru 17,
The Giant Scale radio controlled airplanes return to Ashtabula County Airport for the 8th year
of exciting racing. To be "Giant Scale" the planes have to have
a wingspan of at least six feet! These aircraft race around pylons, spaced 1000 feet apart fly at over 200 mph.
Aircraft are divided into 7 different classes, depending on the design of the aircraft and the size of the engine.
The races are part of a national competition that is designed to find the best Giant Scale racer
in the United States. Competitions in the past have featured flyers from all over the Nation as well as competitors
from other countries such as Australia and France.
