There is no spectators fee, but spectators must be accompanied by an AMA member (or be AMA members themselves).

Will there be golf cart rental? I was at Joe Nall and this place is BIG!

[Seasick78]

So if you're a card carrying AMA member but not planning on flying, no registration required? Just show up?

No golf cart rentals, unlike Joe Nall we'll all be congregating around the 3D line down by the pond (for the most part).

You got it!

But why would you come all that way, and then not bring anything to fly?

So would you be able to drive a vehicle to the 3D area? I ask because it is about a mile and a half from the main parking area to the 3D area, would be quite a hike especially with helis, batteries etc.

Was just curious. Anyway... It's only a 30 min drive for me so it's not really "all that way."

You will need to park by the front gate and walk to the 3D area.

Of course you can drive there. :-)

What Mike said, just drive on down to the 3D line, there's plenty of parking down there.

Everyone planning to attend the Heli Extravaganza we need you to preregister!!! This is so we can give the caterer an idea on the amount of food needed on Saturday night.
As an incentive Heli Command & Castle Creations are donating a few goodies that will be raffled off to only the preregistered pilots!!

Don't forget live entertainment Saturday night after the dinner!!

[CSpaced]

Update!

We are excited to announce that the pilot preregistration raffle will offer pilots the chance to win a Heli Command FBL unit or a Castle Creations ESC of your choice!

As the title suggests, you must preregister to enter!

[Seasick78]

Preregistration- Done!

Is anyone else counting down the days yet?

[bstanley72]

Is the heli flight line that they use during Joe Nall going to be open? It's the one near the main gate. I don't see it indicated that it is on the map.

I like to big air sport fly and want to make sure there is going to be enough space.

No, that area will not be open. There will be the 3D line down at the other end of the property (same place as the 3D line at Joe Nall), then the area adjacent to the bigger pond (where electrics were flying at Nall) will be open.
