I must be lucky, I have access to a large cricket field, surrounded by more acres of open field :thumbup: just the job as I'm still learning.

If you are after clubs in Victoria, Australia check out this page:

I can recommend MARCS(http://www.marcs.org.au/) In Laverton (15 mins from melbourne city to the west) just off the boundary Rd exit on the ring road to the west.

A great club with a reasonable portable, great friendly guys. Caters for both helis and planes. A welcoming bunch of guys.

Helis have a separate area, but can fly on the main runway if the plane guys aren't around

If you are in the Zhills, FL area, you should check out Boe Hilton's farm.

Basicly 60 acres of flying field on 600+ acres. Two ponds you can fly from and they just added a control line/hover circle.

Not a club, no dues, very few rules, and some great guys. When I was there they all quit flying to watch my heli.

There are guys there almost everyday in the AM, about three heli pilots.
In 22 years I have not found a more friendly field.

If you want directions, PM me.

For Helifreakers who fly E-Helis check out the Capitol Area Soaring Association in Rockville, Maryland just outside of Washington, DC.

We are an electric only club flying sailplanes, plankers, and helis. For the mostpart we coexist very well. We have a great heli field and would welcome anyone that would like to check us out.

We are not a club but we fly on a private field owned by an LHS. If you are in N. Florida, look for Scotts Hobbies/ Branford RC Speedway. He has an outdoor 300+ ft concrete NASCAR racing oval(they race 1/10 scale pan cars) and he let us use 10 acres of the property adjacent to the track. We also have access to private airfield(real landing strip for small planes) 60+ acres all cleared for planes and helis. Mr Scott provides workbenches for cars and helis with power hookups for chargers. No fee he just does it for his customers(he own a hobby store on the property, full stocked with cars, airplanes and heli kits and parts and he gives a better deal than most LHS because of his low overhead). Great place, great guys. we also offer free heli and plane flight tutoring.

Howdy fellow Freaks...

A group of great heli pilots have formed a new club in central New Jersey near the coastline that caters to Helicopters only. Please visit our website at www.wallrchelis.org for more information.

We are brand new and looking for new members.

Our club will offer the guidance of several professionally sponsored pilots, seasoned veterans, and provide a location for great fun and learning. We look forward to a great future with your participation!
