And even more: few lucky ones can get home from Heliwood with their own, dedicated AccuRC instances. More details about these games to come very soon, before Heliwood. Follow our pages at rchelicopterhub.com, our facebook page and the event facebook page to get informed about these details.

Happycopter Simulator

Do you know how it feels to fly a helicopter? Try it by the simulator of Happycopter. You can fly at a very spectacular landscape with real control devices in this simulator - and if you crashed, you crashed, not a disaster. More info at the scene.

RC-Klub - for RC car fans

This year again: RC cars - RC-Klub will attend Heliwood 2022.

You can see the actual trends and equipment of RC cars, to enjoy the beauty of RC car modelling. If you have a 1:24 car, you can test it on the crawler track, and 1:10 track is planned too. And if you haven't got one, you can get informed how to crack on this kind of RC modelling.

Team RC Tank Fórum

As previously, the Team RC Tank Forum will be presented at Heliwood again. Realistic, moving models will present the battles of  the past. These models come from different times and different countries to demonstrate the history of modern warfare. And to make it more realistic, visual effects, true to age background music and other effects improve the show.

Real spectacular programme for the whole family.

Weapons exhibition - collection of Ferenc Hibácskó

Retired Colonel Ferenc Hibácskó will present one of the most famous privately owned weapon collection of Hungary.

Along RC helis, drones, tanks and cars, little ones and grown ups, and especially active or former soldiers can see closely, and can get to know the most fameous firearm and equipment of the world wars and the recent past.

Ramo's uncommon RC helicopters

Ramo (Zsolt Ramocsa) is coming to Heliwood to present his unique helicopters. These helicopters are designed and build by himself: the Ramo Coax, the Ramo Intermeshing and the Ramo Vertol Tandem based on Hirobo. And yes, it's planned, they will be flying at Heliwood. These non conventional RC helicopters are so rare, there are no more in Hungary and there are only a very few in the surrounding countries.
