As you know, helicopters are not just a commodity in the United States, but rather they are well known throughout the world for being one of the best ways to get around. And if you are hoping to own a helicopter on a smaller level, then you should check out remote control helicopters. In fact, if you are Canadian, or just love the Canadian landscape and are willing to travel, then you should think about applying for the remote control helicopters training and aficionado club in Toronto. This Canadian city is known among other helicopter fliers to be a hotspot for helicopter purchases, and it seems like there is always a helicopter in the air in this area. But the real purpose of the remote control helicopters in Toronto club is their attempt to get a remote control helicopter to fly over the beautiful Niagara Falls. If you have ever been to Canada, or if you are lucky enough to reside there, then you know that the Niagara Falls are one of the most magnificent sights to be beheld in the entire world. I have had the opportunity to see the Falls both in the summer when the weather is warm and they plummet to the bottom of the water, and in the winter, when the entire falls freeze over in the cold Canadian climate. Both sights were breathtaking, and thats why I was so thrilled to learn about the remote control helicopters in Toronto clubs initiative to fly their remote control helicopters over the falls in both the summer and the winter. Apparently, each year, they have two day-long competitions, much like the summer and winter Olympics, which they train for all year long. People come from all over the world, not just from Toronto, with their beautifully crafted helicopters, and many of the people actually make the helicopters themselves rather than purchase them from a store. Anyway, they get together and fly these beautiful things over the falls, and they go in various heats which are basically like qualifying rounds, and then the best two at the end challenge each other for a battle of speed across the falls. The winner gets $50,000 and a vacation to, you guessed it, Niagara Falls for next years competition. This has been going on for years, and people get really excited about it! I am gearing up to go to Toronto next year to see some of the training trials, and then Im going to go to Niagara itself the following year to see one of the actual competitions. I dont believe I am good enough yet to actually compete, but Im still young, so hopefully in a few years Ill be ready. I can tell you that I am training like you wouldnt believe, and I am really looking forward to the day when I can craft my own helicopter and watch it sail majestically over the Niagara Falls. If you are interested, maybe someday this can be your dream as well. My advice would be to start flying your own remote control helicopters as soon as possible, and sign up for the club in Toronto right away.

Where is the best place to find remote control helicopters? I can tell you for sure that youll first want to look in an electronics store, such as Radio Shack, Best Buy, or Circuit City. There you could find remote control helicopters for a pretty reasonable price and you will probably get durable model. My recommendation for finding remote control helicopters would be to first go to your preferred companys online site and look through the models they have for sale. Since you probably wont be able to use the helicopters in the actual store, its sometimes better to just read about them online and then order them through the company. Yes, you may need to pay a bit extra for shipping, but I think its worth it. Then when you receive the remote control helicopter, you can immediately take it out to your back yard and see how it performs. Save the box in case it ends up not being as durable as the company promised it would be. You should always make sure you get a warranty for your remote control helicopter because you might end up needing to send it back in exchange for a different one. I would suggest getting one with welded sides or even a continuous plastic sheath so you dont have to worry about it cracking or rusting. Whatever you do, make sure you research it well and buy your helicopter from a reputable company, because you certainly dont want to have to return it soon after you purchase it. Your best bet would probably be Radio Shack if you want to get a good deal, but you could also try the Discovery Store or even Brookstone if youre looking for a model that will really impress people. You need to think about your motivation ahead of time: would you rather a model that looks flashy in the air, or one that doesnt break if you end up crashing it into the ground? These are things you need to consider before you make a purchase, because you might have to compromise quality for beauty or vice versa. My recommendation is to get a remote control helicopter that can withstand the test of time and crashes, because just choosing the one that looks best to you isnt really the best way to go about it. If its pretty and you crash it, the remote control helicopter will quickly become ugly, and you should not have to deal with that. In either case, a remote control helicopter is a great idea for fun on a bright sunny weekend, and as long as you do your research and know what youre looking for ahead of time, youll be sure to get the remote control helicopter that best suits you and you can really get years of enjoyment out of it. And if it so happens that the first one you choose turns out to be poor quality and you have to purchase another one in a short time, just know that you learned how durable they need to be, and next time you purchase a remote control helicopter, you can be a more informed consumer.

Some of the Best Remote Control Helicopters are Made by People in Toronto This may seem counterintuitive, but sometimes the best place to get remote control helicopters is not in the Unites States where there are the most helicopter enthusiasts, but rather in Toronto, where there are a lot, but not nearly as many, people actually interested in flying them. The reason for this is because the people in Toronto have amazing skills at helicopter creation, and they are the most innovative group of people you will probably ever find when it comes to ability to make really beautiful helicopters. I was so impressed by the helicopters I saw advertised in Toronto that I drove to Canada from Texas to purchase some for myself. Normally, I would advocate doing an online order, but in this case, it was really better to just go there on my own, because the online inventory was much less impressive, plus the cost of shipping was outrageous. Anyway, I took the time and drove to Toronto and used that little vacation to make a special trip to Niagara Falls as well, because I just cannot go to Canada without getting a glimpse of the Falls. Anyway, it was so wonderful to see a bona fide helicopter shop where you knew the owners were also the manufacturers and they would know everything there was to know about helicopters. And of course, the wonderful Canadian hospitality cannot be beaten, and the people selling remote control helicopters in Toronto and in surrounding areas are always happy to help with your purchase and to lend their knowledge to people who are new to the helicopter world and just want to learn as much as possible before they go forward with their first helicopter purchase. Although I already consider myself a helicopter aficionado, I still know that I have a lot more to learn, and I am always interested in hearing as much as possible from these helicopter gurus. It turns out that the day I got there they had just gotten a brand new shipment of their best brands and I got first dibs at looking at what they had to sell. I was so thrilled with their selection and their true attention to detail, that I bought two remote control helicopters, even though I had initially planned to only buy one. I brought the helicopters home and can happily say that I got back to the United States with a better knowledge of the newest trends in helicopter purchasing as well as a great idea of the type of warranty I could get in Canada. It turns out that Toronto has a great warranty plan for their remote control helicopters; one that the United States has not yet been able to match. And the thing I like best about buying remote control helicopters in Canada is the unassuming elegance of the helicopters these Canadians craftperfect reflections of these people as a nation. I still regularly use the two helicopters I purchased there, and I am looking forward to the next helicopter racing competition, when I can really see how well they handle.
