Is it with great regret and sadness that all of us at HPI Europe heard of the passing of Dez Chand today. As the former head editor of the UK magazine Radio Race Car International and a professional photographer, there are very few of us here at HPI Europe that hadn't met Dez, or weren't touched in some way by him.
Dez was the head editor for Radio Race Car International for several years, during which time many of the racers and staff at HPI Europe had direct dealings with him, whether seeing him at the race track or working with him in a professional capacity. After he left the magazine, Dez continued to be in touch, taking photos at racing events up and down the UK, just for fun and to give professional-quality pictures of RC cars to the drivers. Dez even helped us at HPI Europe get amazing action photos for many of our recent kits - you will have seen them throughout this website. We will all miss Dez: his attitude and his passion for RC! The thoughts of everyone at HPI are with his family in this difficult time.
