Looks like a cheap and nice competition to the EasyStar; with servos, motor and ESC included.

With shipping it would come to around $90 and it is 4 channel.
I just need to buy battery. I already have Tx and Rx.
I guess I would need a charger too.
"Battery required: 2-3S 1300mAh" but comments suggest buying 2200mAh
Would I need another ESC if I buy 2200 mAh?

Comments, suggestions?

No, increasing battery capacity has no effect on ESC requirements.

Hey Sunil,

That plane is not in stock i have been keeping a watch on it since quite sometime  Tongue

But Easy Fly RTF Glider EPO is in stock..Unfortunately the shipping cost is higher than the gliders price   Grin

So i guess easy star from mr.sai is a nice deal..

@RotorZone: Thanks. I am a novice at this.

@atul_pg: I have no problem waiting for it. EasyStar is 3 Channel and AXN is 4 channel and hence my preference for AXN. I really don't have enough cash to upgrade after a while. Or else I will have to try some of the hacks I saw online to convert it to a 4 channel.

@Mr. Sai: Still, can I get a quote for EasyStar excluding Rx and Tx?

Hey Sunil,

I guess it would be worth waiting for the axn float since i read some good reviews abt this glider..

But am sure hobbycity will increase their shipping rates making it almost to the price of this glider.. Grin

Rest is all your decision.. all the best..

That looks pretty. But as you said, the P&H is more than its cost.

I was wondering what the heck is a "chewing gum camera" Head Scratching 

The good lord in the shape of Google answered... that it is a reference to the size of the camera (like the size of a pack of chewing gum) !

The 30fps ultra mini camera is a good alternative:

http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbycity/store/uh_viewItem.asp?idProduct=10973

                  HK                                      Chewing Gum
FPS              30                                      15
Size        57x21x19mm                 73mm x 20mm x 11mm
Weight        18g                                       NA
Price           $19 + Shipping                      $49+

All in all HK is a winner

Visit this site for the low down on the key chain cameras http://chucklohr.com/808/

Don't see an exact match for the HK one, but it is very similar to one.
