For me by fsr the most difficult part of the whole flying heli's thing....finding somewhere to fly. [sm=confused.gif]
Thinking of giving up now as just so frustrating. I live in the south east (UK) and it just seems impossible to join a club where I can practice or get tuition etc etc. Everywhere I try is full or fixed wing only, electric only and so on.
I do have a local club but I would be the only heli flyer amongst a domination of scale fixed wing so I don't think I would get to many popularity prizes no matter how well I can fly !
Anyone else have this problem ? or even better, anyone want to rent me a big field please !!!!!

Hi and thanks for the reply.
Yeah done / still doing that route. Head, wall and bang ! lol It is nice that there are so many places to fly fixed wing ( I am also a member of a club that is fixed wing only ) but no room around here (surrey) for one of those hooligan rotary whirlygig things !
