Dont crash Heli, Crash Tx



If you are a beginner in this hobby and have never flown a heli i would suggest you to buy a fixed pitch heli or else esky offers ,

If you are an absolute beginner, its better you start with some cheap co-axial helis, they are really good for beginners. Once you are familiar with co-axial, then you start practicing simulator with 6 channel helis. Meanwhile, read all posts (heli related) in rcindia about collective pitch management concept and gyro concept and etc...Once you are confident about the concept, then start collecting the electronics and heli kit.
Again two options for you:
1.Selecting RTF (Ready-to-Fly) Heli :- Very less options to get RTF helis in india. Only RcBazaar is selling RTF Helis with all spares availability with low prices. Getting RTF Heli from out of india is very difficult(Main Customs problem).
2.Assembling kit and electronics :- purchase heli kit and all other electronics seperately. you should select a very good transmitter as well. Then build heli with your own preferences. Here, If there is any problem in heli, then you yourself can identify and can resolve it as you yourself has built it.
If you really intrested, then Option 2 is suggested.

Kumar,
I am planning to get a RTF heli from USA. What is the problem in customs for importing this helis.

In india, Where can I buy the heli kit ?

Also what will be the budget to start this hobby?

Thanks

Now a days, customs are creating lot of problems especially regarding this RTF helis and planes, especially if you are ordering online and getting them through courrier service. They ask for WPC Type approval document, freequency range, radiation levels, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.....I think its ok (not sure), if any of your friends or relatives are carrying them from USA for you. It can be escaped from the customs.

In India, www.RcBazaar.com is selling heli kits with reasonable/affordable prices and all spare parts availability. There are some other LHSs like www.RCDhamaka.com which are also selling branded ARF Helis. In chennai www.rcforall.co.in is available.

Again the budget depends upon your choice of electronics and your choice of heli kit.

In RcBazaar most of the items are out of stock all time. Is there any other online store which is having heli kits and RTF helis.

Is anybody here in this forum from chennai, so that I can get in touch with you and get trained.

Thanks.

pandiarajan: Don't buy from usa. Your parcel will definitely get stuck in customs. Better get from within asia with registered shipping!

this site sells more cheaper than banggood and its good site! Free registered shipping! Check the reviews on rcgroup!
