"This event is about flying, not watching other people fly!"
That's what one of our flyers said after he had attended another major indoor event and spent most of his time watching other people fly. In two days he only got in seven flights. At "e/xpo in the UNI Dome", he said he got so much flying time that his fingers were tired. That's the way we do indoor flying in Iowa! If you want to fly everything you've got and fly till you drop, this is the event for you. Most of the time will be open flying, but there will also be pylon racing and combat. Bring lots of charged up Li-Po's, because you will need them. We've got 17 flying stations and most of the time, no waiting to fly.
The UNI Dome is the 16,324 seat indoor football stadium for the University of Northern Iowa in Cedar Falls, IA. The UNI Dome is a hard roof with no fans or blowers inside, so it's perfect for everything from micro and slow park flyers to 3D and helicopters. The flying area is HUGE! The UNI Dome has almost 2 acres of floor space (78,000 sq ft) with a 162 foot ceiling. Not only is the football field available for R/C flying, there's additional airspace over the seats on the East side of the stadium. One end of the field is for 3D aircraft & helicopters, the middle is for "racetrack" or circular pattern flying and the other end is for micro flyers. All fixed wing aircraft must have a flying weight of less than 20 oz. Sponsor demonstrations and R/C vendors on site. Prizes have been donated by Air Thunder, Ace, Extreme R/C, Hobbico, Hobby-Lobby, Horizon Hobby, Maxx Products, Sig and Thunder Power.
There's no other event like this one, so don't miss it! Register now.
