STELLENBOSCH MODEL
AIRCRAFT ACADEMY

ABOUT US

Stellenbosch Model Aircraft Academy is a community of model aircraft enthusiasts.

At Stellenbosch Model Aircraft Academy, we are passionate about model aircraft and dedicated to promoting the hobby. We provide a safe and friendly environment for pilots to fly their model aircraft and connect with other enthusiasts.

Our facilities are available for use by paid up RCASA and SAMAA members with at least a SOLO proficiency, or who fly under the supervision of a qualified instructor.

To secure the future of the SMAA, we had to lower the maximum noise emitted by glow/gas engine planes to 86 dBA over a hard surface from a 7 meter distance. Please have a look at our Downloads page for guidelines. Please only fly planes that fall within this requirement at SMAA.  With a little bit of effort and low cost, we can make sure our planes fall within this specs when flying at SMAA, or any other location.  

Reasonably accurate Decibel Meter apps can be downloaded from all the major app stores.
