Hi all, Hamish here.
I will be aiming to be a basic blog from this year's events that I attend. If you see me at any of the events please feel free to come and say hello, and ask for some advice if required. I hope with the heli scene growing again not only in Australia but worldwide, I will bump into some of you throughout the year. If not, you can keep up to date with me on this blog or Hamish Scott Heli on Facebook where I post flight videos, pictures, event and product information that I hope you all can make some use of.

Modelflight was able to visit the event and we were very impressed with the range of RC helis that were on show (not to mention the excellent skills of the pilots operating them). Over the course of three days, pilots and spectators from around Australia came to witness what has been one of the country's best helicopter fun flies for many years and 2013 was no different. One man to watch was our very own pilot, Hamish, who flew the JR VIBE NEX E8 and the
