IMPORTANT NOTICE! Starting with the March meeting, we will be meeting at Al’s Hobby Shop. The meeting date and time will be the
same, and the meeting will be held in the lower level. Al’s Hobby shop is located at 121 Addison Ave. (one block west of York Rd. and two and a half blocks south of North Ave.(Rt. 64)) in Elmhurst.
From our start in 1985, we have become the largest radio-controlled helicopter club in
the country.
One advantage in belonging to a club is you can draw on the experiences and talents of many people. Collectively our members own, have owned or flown every type of helicopter ever manufactured.
Flying abilities range from hovering to "Hot Dog" and formal contest flying.
Our club is made up of helicopter pilots at all skill levels.
Some of our members have and still fly r/c planes. For others, helicopters are their first experience with radio controlled models. To make
your helicopter experience fun, our club will help in any way we can.
All helicopter pilots remember the apprehension, joy and sorrow they experienced when they where learning.
Some members have been flying helicopters for many years. When they started, they had to learn the hard way - ON THEIR OWN! Because of this, we all volunteer to help
the beginners. It does not take a lot of time for an experienced pilot to look over your machine, trim it out and give you some pointers for your first flight.
So if the weather is nice come on out and join us!!!!!(We even have pilots who
brave snow and cold in the winter and fly year round)
