The Victorian Miniature Pylon Racing Association (VMPRA) is the organization responsible for running and promoting remote-control model aircraft pylon racing in the state of Victoria.

The VMPRA runs year-round competitions at many country and city-based model aircraft clubs throughout Victoria.

We currently run three different classes:

• FA1 – (Australian rules for F3D) The premier speed class.
• F3T (Semi-Scale Pylon Racing) – Fast racing (sub-FA1 speeds).
• Q500 (Quickie 500) – (Entry Level) Close racing beginners and experienced flyers alike.

We also offer sports racing at our one-day Q500 events, where pilots can fly their trainers or sports models (Scanners, Boomerangs, Classis Trainer, etc.) and experience the thrill of pylon racing.

Pylon racing is one of the most exciting facets of remote control aeromodelling. If you like racing your model aircraft, then come along and join in the fun. Come to an event and see what it’s all about, introduce yourself, or contact a committee member via the website.

The members of the VMPRA are a very friendly and encouraging group willing to help any newcomer to pylon racing.
