Why fly model helicopters?
A. In short, flying model helicopters is great fun! You get to control a little machine which has complete three-dimensional freedom, and make it move in very precise ways. You can swoop and dive, loop and roll, and achieve tremendous speeds. You can hover over a spot and carry out pretend airlift rescues, or any number of other fantasies. Flight has a magical, even spiritual quality to it, and making it happen yourself feels very special and relaxing. Learning to fly model helicopters also helps with learning the real thing, in my limited experience!
