Plan On Attending E-Fest in February
Article Type: Events Author: Jim Booker Posted: 1/10/2007 Copyright: © 2007 Horizon Hobby, Inc. In this Article · 1: Don't Miss This Event! Don't Miss This Event! Last February, JR, E-flite and Spektrum were Gold Sponsors of the very first E-Fest—and it was so enormously successful, it became one of the largest electric flight indoor events of 2006. Again this year on February 10–11, you will find JR, E-flite and Spektrum as Gold Sponsors of this very popular event. Don’t miss it! E-Fest 2006 attracted over 200 pilots, including such famous names as Sean McMurtry (USA), Yoichiro Ono (Japan), and Quique Somenzini (Chile). "Spectacular" was how Fly R/C magazine described the Heli Smackdown and Black-Out Nite Flying events. Overall, they found E-Fest to be "a ton of fun for everyone." In a few weeks you'll have another chance to join in the fun yourself, when Great Planes hosts E-Fest 2007. Like last year, the festival will let participating pilots stretch their skills to the limit...and spectators can shake off the winter doldrums by watching edge-of-your-seat indoor aerobatics. It’s also a wonderful time to fly with your buddies in this excellent facility. Both days of E-Fest allow several hours for open flying. Specific times are reserved for slow flyers, jets, helis, 3-D, combat, and sponsored demos. By popular demand, Saturday's fun again concludes with "Black-Out Nite Flying"...when the Armory fills with music and flying LEDs. E-Fest will be held at the University of Illinois Armory Track and Field facility in Champaign, Illinois. With its 100-foot ceiling and vast open space, the Armory offers an ideal stage for hot R/C indoor flying during cold winter days. Don't miss this winter's Big Event in R/C indoor flying. For complete information about E-Fest—admission and registration details, schedules, lodging, maps and more—visit the festival website at www.gpe-fest.com. Attend and enjoy the following events: World Class Airshow See world famous pilots perform amazing stunts and choreographed routines to music. Ultimate Combat Full contact airplane battles where the last one flying wins. "Blackout" Indoor Night Flying Pylon Races Pilots race to the finish line for the ultimate bragging rights.
