Title: Upcoming International Events ?
Post by: gauravag on October 06, 2009, 05:18:23 PM
Guys,
Was wondering if you could share information on upcoming International events related to RC .
If you have visited any, please share, so we can track the dates. I keep travelling, and would love to have a list of such events so can make a schedule to visit one of them in the coming months.
Just saw these photos and got excited :

Check out flyinggiants there is a poster at the top listing out every now and then new events - all in the US of course.

Anwar,
    It sounds like a good idea to have a banner at the top of the home page which can have a default "print your ads here" like message and with the actual details of local events whenever such events are held.

I guess what Gaurav is looking for are international events.  In some ways, I am also in the same boat, and tend to have the same aspirations. 

The first thing is to figure out if you have special interest.  For me, it is helis.  So I have done some research on this area, and figured out that some of the premier events in the heli arena are the 3D Masters (UK), Align Fun Fly (Taiwan) etc.  This allows for planning of trips.  More than attending such mega events, I enjoy visiting local fields in which ever country; and many times there are local fun fly events there.  Just getting in touch with the local flyers is a great experience, and they usually have information on local events.

If visiting the US, just search around for local flying clubs and you should be able to see some great fields and folks doing some great flying.  :thumbsup: Wow!! That place is too  good if you are a hobbyist!!  :-*

My personal interest is RC Scale/Jets/Giants. So I would be interested in an upcoming list for such events.
Visiting local airfields and meeting modelers is OK, and I do that anytime I visit a new place and have spare time.

But, if we can compile a listing of the "best-of-the-best" International RC events, perhaps I ( and others )
 might even make a trip just to be a part of the event.

Please share if you have been to such events, and the ones that would be worthwhile attending.
-Gaurav

I am making it a point now to add international events that I come across to the RC India calendar  :thumbsup:

BTW, in terms of variety and participation, I heard from multiple people who go to such events that IRCHA in the best one.
