I have been flying model helicopters since January 2004 after buying a Raptor 30 v2 for myself for Xmas 2003.

My sponsors include Midland Helicopters, Thunder Tiger, Thunder Power RC, OptiFuel, Scorpion Power Systems, Savox, Mavrikk Blades and CSM.

I fly Thunder Tiger model helicopters, with my main models being the Raptor 90 G4 in both nitro and electric variants.

I am looking forward to the impending new releases from Thunder Tiger in 2013, as they become available. It’s going to be a great year for Thunder Tiger and I’m thrilled to be a part of it!

I am an international 3D competition pilot, and have managed to place in the top 5 in the UK for the last three years, and in 2012 I won 1st place at 3D Ireland 2012.

I am also the UK F3N 3D Team Manager and will be helping to take the team to a Podium position at the World Championships in Poland this year (all being well!).
