Title: First time buying/building RC Post by: R0han on May 26, 2013, 05:13:01 PM Hello,
I have experience with RC helis and cars. I also like RC planes but never had one ... so i am thinking of buying / building a plane. I want to build a P-51D Mustang ( http://www.rcbazaar.com/products/1044-p-51d-mustang-17-span.aspx ) What components are included in the box and what are the things that i need to buy ??? Also how does it fly ??? Is there any other model in the same price range, better than it ?? Would be building plane from scratch be better ???

You just have to spend a solid 16 hours searching and reading on this forum. All of this has been answered before. Title: Re: First time buying/building RC Post by: Bilal on May 26, 2013, 06:13:11 PM Rohan, 'beginner' is the keyword for you mate......and P-51D mustang ain't a good choice for a first time rc pilot.....go for planes like easystar, blue baby, piper cub, cessna-180 etc, these are called trainer models.....google 'em

I have experience with flying RC planes. I have flown many but they were not mine. I lack the experience of building one from the kit /scratch. All the planes that I had flown were my friend's and were already built. Title: Re: First time buying/building RC Post by: sanjayrai55 on May 26, 2013, 09:08:49 PM Great, so you are an expert. I think P51 would be too easy for you :) Go for something more advanced like this

Anyone who can build/fly a radio controlled 17 inch P51 is to be lauded. Especially in Rs700. Title: Re: First time buying/building RC Post by: sanjayrai55 on May 26, 2013, 09:45:22 PM :D

Title: Re: First time buying/building RC Post by: sanjayrai55 on May 27, 2013, 09:03:26 AM It is not essential to have a trainer; depends on your flying skills, and how confident you are with them
It's always a good idea to build your own, but DO use a proven design the first time Maybe you could select an intermediate model? Good luck, and all the best! Title: Re: First time buying/building RC Post by: R0han on May 27, 2013, 10:36:40 AM Thank You for your support :)
Can u suggest some good designs ?? I was thinking of Pylon Racer by Mikeys' RC ( http://mikeysrc.com/Pylon_Racer.html ) Title: Re: First time buying/building RC Post by: sanjayrai55 on May 27, 2013, 01:55:41 PM Pylon Racers are designed for speed, speed and more speed ;D
Better to go with a sports model, where you could try the whole gamut of aerobatics, loops, rolls, and pattern flying. I saw this on the site you suggested : http://mikeysrc.com/Sport-Trainer.html You could always build the Pylon Racer as your next model :thumbsup: Title: Re: First time buying/building RC Post by: R0han on May 27, 2013, 02:03:54 PM OK time to get to work ;D ;D ;D
Thank you once more :hatsoff: Do u think rudder will be necessary?? :headscratch: Title: Re: First time buying/building RC Post by: sanjayrai55 on May 27, 2013, 02:12:32 PM Rudder is good for landings, and essential for advanced aerobatics
Title: Re: Re: First time buying/building RC Post by: aniket210696 on May 28, 2013, 09:22:59 PM hello rohan... so tell me have you flown a plane before? if you have, then why don't you want to put a rudder?
