RC India

This thread is opened as requested by multiple forum members to highlight deeds of kindness demonstrated from time to time by our members in support of other members and this hobby.

It is a way of saying THANK YOU in public.

 First will be for MR. Vishal Bhatia sir, for sending me free charger,.. he didnt even take the courier shipping from me. i will be very thankfull to him...

regards,

Oh my God! I have an endless list, just don't know where to start........................so many people to thank. Let me reserve this slot and edit it later.

Not trying to apple polish here, but Anwar Sahab's is the first name that comes to my mind. Had it not been for him and RCI, exactly 4 years ago, I wouldn't be where I am. On this date, 4 years ago, I did not even possess a single Transmitter.

Here is the 4th post on this forum - barring the exception of remaining a 'beginner', so much has changed since then.............

"Can someone suggest a really cheap 3 or 4 channel RC Tx and Rx set for a submarine / boat?

I am scratchbuilding a submarine and need it to control the Diveplanes, The Rudder and the Motor.

The range has to be between 50 to 100 metres and should be able to control 3 mini servos.

I am an absolute beginner as far as RC is concerned. Please HELP!!!"



And then Saikat gifted my my first Tx, an old Futaba 6 Ch. Even though I never used it and eventually returned it, it was my first ever Transmitter.

Standing tall in my list of people who have performed "deeds of kindness" is Sujjubhai - his gifts have continued over the years.

From me, thanks to Prateek Khullar ( prateek13) for bearing with me and helping me get up into the air! :D

I rarely use my personal id as from past 2 plus years mostly my involvement here has been from the RcBazaar id... however I write again from my personal id to thank this forum and each one of you for making this hobby more knowledgeable and enjoyable... gone are the days where we used to literally hunt to get info on this hobby... and yes this forum has definitely been a large part to the launch of RcBazaar and its spread in the country... I took some time here to hunt this self explanatory 3 plus year old thread http://www.rcindia.org/rc-general-topics/manufacturing-of-helis-and-aero-engines-and-kits-in-india/msg26226/#msg26226 (http://www.rcindia.org/rc-general-topics/manufacturing-of-helis-and-aero-engines-and-kits-in-india/msg26226/#msg26226) ...

Thanks to anwar for initiating this and everyone here for their inputs in making this hobby more accessible in India.

Regards
Sujju

Oh I have a long, long list!

But in essence,

1. RC India & Anwar-bhai  :salute: :salute:. After being out of the hobby for over 25 years, it got me back. I made good friends through it. When posted to Mumbai, through RC India I contacted fellow flyers, and not only started flying again, but made some good friends  :bow:. Similarly when I came back to Gurgaon  :bow:.

2. The local LHS's. For one who started his RC Flying in the 80's, the experience of having a choice of places to get our RC Goodies was unbelievable! I had never seen a Linkage Stopper before  ;D ;D

Anwar bhai, srini, sushil anand, santhosh, nandan, karthik, sanjeev, sujju, sagar, sundaram and all rci members,  not in anyparticular order.

ps
Kalyan ! Thanks ! but what is boaring ??? About it :)

Really Really Great People  :) :)  :bow: :bow: Members Of RCI

Aman.

I thank everyone over here.
My special thanks to Anwar Sir for getting this beautyfull forum and my thanks to Irshad Anwar sir For getting the RC hobby in India (Although I have never met him or any sort of thing).
My thanks to Sanjay sir for his great help.
My thanks to AnjanBabu, ak.stunns for their great help to finish my first circuit.
My thanks to Gusty sir, Sundaram sir, VC sir for putting their great knowledge on this forum.
My thanks to Aman1256 for being my great friend on the forum and puting up with me.
My thanks to each and every forum member for helping me and putting up with me.

I don't think I will be able to list everyone here because of the sheer number of people who have helped me over the years. Nevertheless here is my list, in no particular order : BTW please add (bhaiya) after every name, except for Kalyan Da :P
Unfortunately, although I'm associated with airplanes, I hardly find time to do justice to the hobby but I think I should be finally free in a month or two.

Ritesh (Sethji) - Was the first forum member whom I met during our search for the elusive depron/biofoam in kolkata, helped me with things outside the hobby domain. Thank You so much.
Kalyan Da - Too many reasons (ps : sorry for the boring lectures :P) Have to build something this winter together.
VC - Too many reasons. Had a wonderful time last year, would love to meet again sometime.
Gusty - Again too many reasons, Aerodynamics being one big reason (you got me into it and now i keep boring other people :P) and having invited me to my first RC event (at Kgp)
RcD, RcB (Sujju Sir), Rcelectro (VK Singh), Anam (Rchobbyaddict), Vineet (hobbysea), hellyflyer, foamybuilder, Sandeep bajare, Bhavesh - Purchased something or the other from them. Wonderful experience, no complaints.

Sorry if I have missed anyone, I'll edit this if I can remember some more names.

A inspiring giant who is rather inactive on the forum these days - Ashta Sir - a Mentor and a guide.

Sai Sir - RCforall - stood by me and replaced models broken in transit free of charge - gave away a whole load of goodies to the students of AVS and ensured that my workshop was a grand success.

Adiboy and VK Singh - not just suppliers - friends.

Lance Theleabres - for selling me some models at less than throwaway prices.

Xantos - for the wonderful Heli fuselage and treasure trove of magazines (on the way and should reach me soon)

This list could go on and on. If I stop now, I may be either labelled an ingrate. I am even prepared to accept that. However, if this list gets any more exhaustive and thereafter someone finds his name missing, it may be a bitter pill to swallow.

However, there are a few names of members who are just a phone call away. They patiently listen / advice and stand by me. They share notes and some of them procure stuff for me not only for monetary benefits. They are friends. I won't share those names here. You don't thank friends. I wouldn't be where I am without them.

I never intended this to be a "thank you for being alive" thread. This was meant more to be a place to highlight people who went beyond what is generally expected of them on a forum like this.  Cases where someone sent another member something he was looking for without taking money, someone who takes an absolute newcomer in his car to a field and shows him around etc.

We all help each other, that IS EXPECTED of one another just by being members here (or any forum like this).  It is going beyond the call of duty that needs to be highlighted specifically.

Finally, I started this forum for purely selfish reasons (at the time, at least), and I still struggle with keeping a fair balance of control and freedom here. 

Heartiest regards to Mr. Ashutosh Panigrhi(asupan) for turnigy controller although it got lost in shipment and he refunded money. Again he helped me out when I needed a RX tx. Thank you sir.

This is to thanks immensely to Lt. Col. S Meenakshi Sundaram for donating five (5) batteries for our group (Nitin, Chetan, Ramesh, Arvind) at Nagpur, Maharashtra. I have PMed Sundaram Sir to accept Shipping cost but he did not. It is my pleasure to see people like Sundaram Sir who is willing to help beginners.

Thanks Nithin.

First of all thanks to our admin ANWAR SIR for starting such a thread.i want to convey my thanks to VISHAL SIR(Vishal Bhatia) who gave me a gyro for my heli free of cost once I was struggling to find one for my  build.for me it was a great experience because VISHAL SIR has no prior relation with me ,he shipped the item on the same day with out any delay through dtdc (free of shipping cost) for my convenience.one more thing that I can get answers for my doubts and suggestions fast because most of the time Vishal sir is online on WhatsApp. :bow: :bow: :bow: Thanks a lot Vishal sir. :hatsoff: :hatsoff: :hatsoff:

Today I am overwhelmed by the kindness and generosity of Girish Sarwal for gifting me with a Toki 0.15 Engine.  I must have been drooling over this on alliexpress for I don't know how many days. wonder how he read my mind.   ;D

Thank you very much Girish. Full review on this is now due.

 :hatsoff: :hatsoff: to Girish Sarwal..  {:)} {:)} {:)}

Thank you to RCproduct.in for wrongly mailing me a FRSKY receiver module worth 4000 rupees, thank them also for not realizing this, I did tell them that i had received a wrong order whilst i had not ordered anything from them in ages. but that was that, i since sent it back and requested the owner to just send me simple heatshrink or m3 screws, would be kind of silly to expect him to deposit the 100 rupees i had used to make sure the package got to him. I thank that shop for not replying to my subsequent inboxes, says alot. mxxxm

@teamnamibia , I know why you need heatshrink and M3 screws :)

Modifying my esc's for my new tri project, that Hex has since gotten 0 hours with me as i am still very sceptical about your propsavers. :-D

Hey Guys,
I really Wanna Thank You Sooraj For Helping Me In My Hobby. He Is really Good And Kind Person.
Really Thanks Friend :)
Regards, :D
Aman.

Vishal sir ; for giving me a Battery pack with out even shipping cost - this pack helped me to tune and setup my flight controller till I bought some High capacity packs.

Arun eattan (Arun.sreelakam) ; For helping me to start out in the hobby with guidelines, and for giving a FS-T6 for cheap price... and also for helping out while I am short of props or any other parts.

Subhashjk0508 ; For helping me with giving a Imax B6 charger for few days use,and also a B3-AC for free .. this helped me to retain from charging my packs with SMPS o/p.

Akhil eattan (Akhilzid) ; For helping with some cool ideas and also sending a Arduino UNO board when I was in need of one .

PRAVEEN JOSE Sir; For sending me an unused Turnigy 1450mAh Transmitter pack..

KK Iyer sir ; For guiding through many things, and being a good friend .

And also most of the senior members here.. for patiently replying for a Newb's PMs asking help with something .
Thank's ANWAR Sir, and fellow mods for creating and maintaining this forum.
Sorry if I forgot to mention anyone..
Thank you all.

Yep, it is time for thanking RCI! without this platform, I would have remained in stone age aeromodelling skills and lost a fortune to get updated. And not to forget my favourite sub-forum, 'For Sale', to help me in getting the needed stuff to [re]start with the hobby. Well almost restarted, but a pause for now.

@sooraj i would like to thank u for helping me many times with technical issues bcoz i am a big 0 in technical issues ...u really know that ...and i was about to throw my tx and rx again he helped me with his simple suggestions...great guy...never misguided me always had his own intuitions and cautious methods not like the you tube idiots WHO PREACHES BLABLABLA...during daytime i would be very busy and several times i couldn't pick his call but he is very particular to pester me to solve my problem.A VERY BIG THANK U FOR UUUUUUU 

As the community is aware, I had been hibernating for a while. I am now well and truly back in the hobby. Over the last month, nearly a dozen gliders have been crafted and work has started on another PT 109 thanks to Dodgy Geezer. This one is going to be 30" in length (plans enlarged to 150%).

The Hexacopter was maidened by Pravesh on Wednesday and I dare say it proved to be a stable flyer. However, ANYTHING in Pravesh's hands is a stable flyer. Thanks Pravesh for coming over and setting it up and also completing the Quad for me. All your efforts paid off.

The Quadcopter was maidened yesterday by me. Not bad, needs some more tweaking. Not posting pictures here as she is, shall we say, rather colourful.

Thanks also to Nairit for being there and guiding me through all my projects - sometimes practically, sometimes patiently digesting my ramblings.

There is a proud pleasure to be felt when you learn from kids who are old enough to be your sons. Their experiential  knowledge base is way beyond.

Thank you boys!

Thank you LHS India for existing, except THS..

Gentlemen, I would like to thank Sundaram sir for sending me a cox 0.049 engine. I've always wanted to have one. Started it today after a long wait (~2 months), that perfect rumble of a two stroker, music!. Thank you Sundaram sir for this beautiful engine.

Absolutely loved the tank fittings
