Title: Greetings from Pune, seeking to join local group
Post by: Rohit N on November 06, 2016, 12:56:44 PM
Hello and greetings!

I am from Pune and looking for guidance and a group who can share experience and mentor me in RC flying.

1) I am specifically interested in doing a scratch build (more interested in the building part of it from scratch than off the shelf planes).
2) I also want to be part of local group that flies often for more hands on exposure and to meet mentors and friends :)

I have done initial research of basic components for building and using the plane. (Referring to some online videos)

Any inputs will be most welcome.

Many thanks in advance.
Kind regards,
Rohit

I see that there are two fields in Pune
1) Pan card club - mostly electrics
2) hadapsar - nitro

Since we (me and dad) would be just starting up I think we will go with electric and foam material (to survive the initial crashes :) )

Need some inputs on following:-
1) A plan for a good first build. (Don't want to go too basic here either) should be slow/medium speed flyer.
2) a reliable source for parts.
Please advise good transmitter/receiver models?
How many channels to begin with?

Thanks in advance,
Best regards,
Rohit
