Abstract: A training stand for use in learning to fly remote control model helicopters without damaging the model. Model helicopters of various sizes can be removably connected to the training stand. The design of the training stand is such that the model helicopter can be made to fly forward, backward, sideways, up-and-down. The model helicopter can, also, be made to hover, rotate about its axis left and right and to pitch forward and backward while at all times remaining captive on the training stand.
