Hey everyone, I'm wondering if any members could give me information about which heli clubs are currently vibrant/active in the Melbourne area?

I'm a member of a good club (planes and helis) though all the heli flyers have deserted it and unfortunately it's no longer the most inspirational place to fly. It had a great bunch of blokes but they've all left the hobby in the past couple of years.

I don't know if all clubs have felt this huge slump in member numbers but I thought I'd reach out as I really want to keep flying; it's just a bit depressing after 4 years flying again by myself...espec at club...I've lost a lot of interest/enthusiasm as a result.

I'm not confident to fly down the park due to the risk as where ever I go someone always seems to walk past within a few minutes; I prefer to fly in a safe environ.

I know there are the Freestylers and Melbourne heli clubs that cater just to heli flyers, but I honestly don't know how vibrant they are on a weekend.

I'd be flying solely on weekends (Sat/Sun morning) and would like to join a club which has regular flyers so I can make some new flying buddies that would be there regularly.

Any info would be appreciated!
