    Dear Forum Members

    It is with great sadness I present this News.

    Jason Rowe - one of our foundation members contributors and very very good friend sadly passesed away. He was known on the forum as @5Fidy.

    I Know I speak for many people and the RC Helicopter community in general when I say Jason you will be very much missed.

    As a person I have never meet a funnier bloke, he could make a funny joke out of anything and he was also one of the first people we conferred with before making this forum and discussed all the Gods and their functions. He lived and breathed rc-helicopters and his fleet of Goblins was second to none.

    Many of you will have come to know Jason as an all round great person who never harmed anyone - he was so passionate about his helicopters. He even learn t to Piroflip just recently - a massive feat for any RC helicopter pilot.

    Jason Rowe - you will be sadly missed by all who knew you. RIP mate..


    UPDATE:

    We have just been informed by Jason family and asked to pass on that Jason Funeral will be
    on Friday the 4th July @ 12 pm at Bunurong Memorial Park
    790 Dandenong-Frankston Road
    Bangholme VIC 3175

    An invitation is open to any one that wishes to attend.

      Iam really sad to hear the news about @5Fidy.

      I had not met him but my brother @simon had told me what a great bloke he was and how much I would enjoy his company, I was really looking forward to meeting him.

      Condolences to his family and friends.

      RIP mate.

      Terrible news. From the few times I met him you knew that he was a top bloke. My thoughts and condolences go out to the family.

      First time I met Jason was on a work site... Of all places.. I was doing a job and my workmate and myself who were both new to helis met Jase... Who started telling me about his quads literally blew my mind when he was telling me all the stuff his quad could do.... Bumped into him a couple of times and had a chat at freestylers events. Seemed a great genuine dude RIP very sad too young

      It's hard to find the right words at a time like this.
      My heart goes out to all who knew Jason.
      I have only known 5Fidy on the forums over the past few years but he always treated me like one of the boys.
      He will be sadly missed :(

      Geez I feel sad for all of you guys who have lost a great mate, it's always so gut wrenching and raw to the bone when the realisation hits you.
      I had never met Jason before and only became familiar with him as 5Fidy through his posts on HeliGods, but man did he make me piss myself laughing at some of the stuff that he posted. Especially all of the cheek that he slung at Crash, no one will be able to dish it out like 5Fidy did.

      RIP man, you can truly sit with the HeliGods now....
