.> Welcome To Oxon Helicopter Collective

Oxon Helicopter Collective is a group of people with a common interest in model helicopter construction and flying. We currently have around 25 members with varying skill levels from novice hovering up to 3D flying and all kinds of helicopters from small electrics to large 90 size nitros.

Our flying site is situated near Abingdon in Frilford, Oxfordshire offering excellent parking and flying facilities. Visitors and new members are welcome and our members are on hand to provide impartial advice to help getting you in the air.



We hold monthly meetings at 8.00pm each 3rd Thursday of the month at The Pack Horse pub which is between Steventon and Rowstock. During the months of May to September the club meeting starts at 9.00pm instead which allows better use of daylight for a bit of flying before the meeting starts. Should you wish to come and fly with us or just have a beer with us at our next meeting please drop us a line.
 




The club constitution document was drafted at the club meeting of January 2005 and was unanimously approved at the club meeting of February 2005. It is now in effect and can be downloaded by
