On the duals occasions of the "launching of RC Bazaar" and "second birthday of RC India", RC Bazaar has extended its support to this forum again in the form of another sweepstakes

The prices is 5000 worth of store credit at http://www.rcbazaar.com .  The draw will be held 45 days after the store opens.

In order to make the best positive and long term use of this sweepstakes, it has been decided that only people who contribute at least a couple of sentences to the RC India Wiki (http://www.rcindia.org/wiki/) will be eligible.  We want to really grow the Wiki, and use it as a tool to create at least an FAQ list for beginners.  We want to have direct answers to questions about ordering from HobbyKing, customs issues, best beginner models etc in the Wiki.  

I have already started the first page with same sample questions. Feel free to break the questions down further, answer the existing questions, add your own questions and answers etc.  Basically, we want to be able to point beginners to a Wiki page for most of the common questions asked by beginners.  Note that there are some questions where linking back to forum threads may be the right answer.

Thank you RCBazaar for your support, and good luck everyone  I hope everyone takes a bit of time out to help with the Wiki effort.

Done

Did my bit..>>> Which is the best Brand with RTR factor in mind

Well did my bit...

Appreciate all the people who participated in this so far  It is great to see the Wiki coming to life finally.

BTW, please feel free to edit existing articles, especially on anything a beginner will ask.  And of course, add new FAQ items, or anything that people might be searching for.

added the link for Understanding Electric Power Systems for RC Planes linking back to RcIndia.

Ankur, thanks ! 

But I moved your post into a question, with the details inside the link.  The first page should really have links, and no detailed articles... it looks weird otherwise

http://www.rcindia.org/wiki/What_are_the_basics_of_electrical_power_setups_for_RC_planes

Just to clarify... some of the threads in the "Gems" list have gotten too big.  I am hoping that the Wiki would produce concise yet effective summaries of such threads. 

For example, it should be fairly simple to know what is involved in importing.  Will there be duty... if there is, how much will it be ? What is the procedure if your item is detained in customs... etc etc.  Basically a lot of "to the point" questions and responses.

solved i answer for which i was sure.

Reminding everyone about this once more

Please do add more questions, or answer existing ones like this :

Hi,
Just added 'Beginners Dictionary - RC Terminology' to the wiki.
The post is a copy from the original post http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=441528
I have just arranged them properly and posted in our Wiki.
The above post helped me a lot understanding the RC Hobby terminology, it may help other beginners like me.
Hope this small contribution makes me eligible for the Sweepstakes..

 Added my bit How to find the thrust of a proppleer and motor easily

  Anwar was it the wrong way to answer that question or was it the wrong answer

I see only the question, with no answer added.  If you add the question by editing the main page, you have to click on the question and add answers in the new page that opens up.

If you attempted to answer it already, may be you forgot to click the Save button ?

  Anwar bai

Modify your post man.  

I am disappointed at how some people are adding questions, without giving it much thought.  There is already a big page on RC terminology, but someone just added one more question about it.  Remember that we don't care about adding NEW questions, we care about adding USEFUL information (even if it is adding couple of lines to an existing answer).

Requesting the person who added the last two questions to make appropriate changes.

I fixed the page to show the embedded video

http://www.rcindia.org/wiki/How_to_find_the_thrust_of_a_propeller_and_motor_easily_%3F

I have already write up
http://www.rcindia.org/wiki/How_much_bare_minimum_have_to_spend_to_start_with%3F

Does the formating, Gaps are OK or I have to make more clear looking?

Pls check
http://www.rcindia.org/wiki/What_is_the_best_prop_suitable_for_my_motor_/_Plane_%3F

would certainly write more... require a lil bit of time to iron out geeky words

I added some more information under:

What are things to be kept in mind building plane with biofoam ?

and

What kind of radio should I buy?
