There are some fantastic events to look forward to at the end of September and throughout October if you are interested in RC helicopters. The sport has seen an upturn in members recently and if you are new to flying or are a seasoned pro, these are the places to be throughout the month.
This weekend sees the UK 3D championships 2009 take place at Croft Farm Waterpark. The venue is easily found from junction 8 or 9 from the M5 motorway and has pitches available for all you tenters, or if you are into caravanning there are 20 pitches available.
Friday is funfly day and flying starts at 10:00am. Anyone can take part; all you have to do is book in your transmitter to fly for free. Because there is free flying all day it might get a little busy so be sure to get to the event early to book in. The spectators price is only £3 which is payable on the day.
The RC helicopter competition really starts to get going on Saturday and Sunday and we will bring you information about both these days and also other events in October tomorrow.
