I have some nice giveaways lined up. As soon as I get a sanction # from the AMA I can get some donations locked in and will post them along with who is helping sponsor the event. All items will be giveaways to registered pilots. No buying raffle tickets.... just show up, register, fly, and hopefully win a prize too. A freind and myself our going to be taking over as CD's at our club. This will be the first of many Heli only events to come. :)
The club is convinently located approx 8 mi. off of I-81. Very nice scenery with golf course quality grass for a runway (we actually pay a golfcourse grounds keeper to mow it). The State park with a nice lake and beach is less than a mile away. Gives other family members something to do if they come along. I will be posting updates as time goes I am trying to nail it all down early.

RotorBash updater....

... KBDD's newest product will be up for raffle to all registered pilots. These are Paddles for the 450 and 500 helicopters.
Tuscarora RotorBash will be the first event these new paddles will be given away.
We had gotten complaints that is was taking too long to hand out individual KBDD items so we have bundled the items based on 10% of estimated pilots. What I have sent you is 2 bundles ( one Neon Orange and 1 Neon Yellow) for the 450, 500 and 50 size helis. All bundles consist with a set of tail blades and paddles. We are not currently making dampeners for the 450 but the 500 and 50 size bundles include our high performance orange dampeners. Also, the 90 size bundles will not include dampeners. Our 50/600 size dampeners will work with some 90 size helis but not that many to be able to hand out.

Updated raffle.... Heliproz is sending a miscellaneous items package valued around 200.00 usd
The rotor bash raffle items is now well over 1000.00 usd.
This should be an exciting 1st time event here in NE Pa. :)

Good on Heliproz, I got an email the other day from them saying they are moving shop, and during the transition they are given 5% off on orders that can be held over until they re-establish themselves................ :cool:
