Title: My Cessna 182 Flight
Post by: devansh on September 24, 2011, 10:04:35 PM
Hi Guys,

This is my first plane. Well i bought it to learn but many don't recommend it.
But i am surely gonna go ahead with it.

Here is it:-

There were few problems at first:-
1. The push rod for vertical stabilizer was short and is not able to join the horn.
2. The connectors for battery and ESC doesn't fits. Both are male.

Anyway, I have got the solution. For the first, I have ordered longer rods. (If they don't work I would happily get two rods welded. And the latter, I just changed the connector of battery by soldering an female plug.

I haven't flown it yet since I am not able to find a place. There are many open spaces but my parents say its not allowed. What do you think?

More updates soon! Stay tuned!

Thanks

hi

If you plan to fly this plane, then you need to practice on the sim for atleast 2 weeks.

Also it is advised to maiden with a experienced flying near you.

Devangsh,

the cheapest method is to use Analog joypad and any simulator softeare like FMS. the joypad would costs Rs.200/- to 300/-. The only disadvantage is that you wont get springless throttle.

You can buy Simulator from RCBazaar.com at appx 1k.

I am using Joypad.
