Heidar Helguson has joined Cardiff City for an undisclosed fee.
The 34 year-old front-man - who scored nine goals in the top-flight for the R's last term - has penned a one-year deal with the Championship side.
Helguson leaves Loftus Road having made a fine impact since his move from Bolton Wanderers, initially on loan, in November 2008.
He scored 28 goals in 80 appearances in all competitions for the R's, as well as spending time on loan at Watford, then managed by current Cardiff boss Malky Mackay.
Helguson will always be rememebred fondly by the QPR fans, not least for his winning penalty against Chelsea at Loftus Road last season.
