The Cobb County Radio Control Modeler's Club (CCRC) is proud to invite everyone to the 5th annual Smackdown of the South heli fun fly. This years event will be held on 5/22/2010 - 5/23/2010 from 9:00am to 9:00pm.

This year we are also proud to announce the Freestyle 3D Heli School with Todd Bennett and Matt Botos on 5/20/2010-5/21/2010 from 10:00 AM until everyone is burned out or until dark, whichever comes first. The school costs $350 per student and is payable on the first day of the school (5/20/2010), cash is preferable. The first day of class will be to go over everyones' machine and test fly them. There will also be some discussion around the technical side of things. The second day will be spent buddy boxing students, expect 4 to 5 flights per student. This class for the Freestyle 3D Heli School is no longer accepting any new students. Thanks to everyone who registered.

There will be a raffle for a Synergy N5 kit. We will also be having a pig Roast for lunch on 5/22/2010 which is free for all registered pilots. Snacks and drinks will be available throughout the fun fly.

This will be an AMA Sanctioned event (10-1599). You must have current AMA membership to fly and no drinking onsite as this is a county park. The landing fee is $25.00. Sorry, no overnight camping, but there is a good selection of hotels within 10 minutes of the field.

Sponsored pilots attending:
Matt Botos
Todd Bennett

The field is located at:
2302 Pitner Rd. N.W.
Acworth, GA 30101

School Head Count

If you have committed to attending the Freestyle 3D school with Todd and myself, please send a PM to me.
We need a total head count as of right now so that we don't over book the school.

Thanks!

The fun fly went off without a hitch. Everyone had a good time, the weather was beautiful and the flying most entertaining. Hope to see everyone there next year.

Thanks to everyone who came out and to our sponsors.

Great time, Great Flying, Great People!

Well two days later and there is still chatter going on!
I posted the first video on vimeo just now and you can see it here
http://www.vimeo.com/12030145
My son had a great time and my whole family came down the first day. Stephen went through a gallon and a half of "GO juice" and picked up some great tips on building his N5 from Matt, Rob and others. He is looking forward to getting her in the air! Hopefully he will have it done by Chattanooga next weekend. I even got to fly a few times and met a great bunch from all over the world. Darrell Sprayberry from Unique Aircraft had his huge electric Bell Jet Ranger that was just incredible. Matt put on some great shows including a few tandem flights with Edwardo and his 3D airplanes, who says planks and helicopters can not co-exist in the air! Can not wait until next year!

Had a great time. Thanks for a great event. I was glad to see that Caleb won the N5. He has helped me out numerous times and continues to help when asked. Thanks again to CCRC for a great event. Looking forward to next years event.
