Passing of member Denis Bielik, founder of High Point Products

To all....

Today I was informed by the family of Denis Bielik that he passed away on January 4, 2026.

For many years Denis was a fixture at Kishwaukee RC Flyers events, as well as at numerous other RC events. He donated many items for raffle prizes, and was always willing to help those that were struggling in the hobby.

Denis was a pioneer in the development of prop balancers for our hobby, going so far as to start High Point Products to bring them to an eager market. His balancers are still used by many of us to ensure our motors and airframes don't suffer from unbalanced props.

We send our condolences to Denis' six children, all of whom remember the times they happily spent with their Dad and Mom at RC events.

The Club will make a donation in Denis' memory. Please keep his family in your thoughts and prayers.
