MORE FLIGHTS! Plenty of Room.

For those attending HeliStorm, we updated our flight box configuration. There are two main flight areas and a hover-only area. Flying is STRICTLY PROHIBITED outside of these areas regardless of the size of aircraft unless expressly permitted by the Contest Director. At two designated times during the event, we will connect the two flight areas to enable “Spotlight Flights.” The Leonardo Flight...

Is it large enough?

A couple of pilots were worried about the size of the flight areas so we increased the width of each of the main areas by 100 feet to 700! That's 233 yards by 133 yards. It's two football fields wide. Every pilot should be able to safely fly in that area. In addition, there is a 75-foot buffer between areas. 😁 If you need power, be sure to bring your solar panels and generators. The front...

No Camping on the Air Force Museum Grounds

A few folks have asked about sleeping/camping on the front grounds of the museum. Unfortunately, this is not permitted! There are nearly a dozen hotels nearby and a campground.

The grounds will be secured at night (Federal property) so you can leave your equipment and models if you’d like.

Here is a link to get discounted rates on hotels nearby:

HeliStorm 2025 Layout

rcnation.comevents.rcnation.com/print/print-boothReportuser.cfm?event_id=8539

OK boys, here is the layout for the event! Every registered pilot gets a 10x20 space (which you reserve when registering, so if you want a good one, get registered). There is room behind the tent to park your vehicle and KEEP IT THERE if you want.

To see a LIVE map of who is placed where, visit:

There are other posts in the HeliStorm 2025 topic which address details around this, but the map...
