RC India - Flying and racing with open minds !



From my knowledge, there are more Surface RC Hobbyists in India than Air RC Hobbyists. I have seen several RC buggy, truck, truggy, events but not many Pylon Racers, Skills showdown, etc for Aircrafts.

Doubt this seriously... if you count people with proper RC grade cars.

There are quite a lot of surface hobbyists - we dont tealize this because RC cars do not need a large field to run. So each guy runs his car alone or in a small group while guys with planes and helis often meet up at common flying fields.

But that should not prevent them from seeking out forums like RC India... I took the membership counts here as a guideline.

Going by the info I have on sales numbers, there should be far more RC cars. May be most of them don't find it imperative to join forums. The challenges in getting your first plane airborne is more compared to running your first RC car. I guess this is why you see more aircraft activity here.

Interesting... guess that can be true if we consider electrics.  Getting glow/petrol cars would drive people straight into forums (or other experienced members!) Wink

Many of the RC car guys are on FB.If we suggest forums,they think that they don't need them.But Murli and Ajo have been spreading the word of RC India.

Whats the problem with calling them toys Undecided
I also fell that these are just toys. I feel happy playing with them and thats all that matters Smiley
Calling them toys adds a limitation, to be only played by kids.
We all now these are known as Big Boys Toy. And yes even I like playing with toys.. Smiley

One reason that may not be mentioned here, bad people. A professor at my college "confiscates" any planes that are kept in "his" lab. This includes three balsa wood complete with engines and everything, made by my friends in the first year. Also a wonderfully made two motor pusher with canards made by my seniors as their final year project who got armtwisted coz he was their project guide. Oh wait , this professor also claims speed=torque and directly connects motors into the wall socket.

Or maybe he's scared of planes!!  Grin

Well,people who cannot teach become teachers.I remember a supposed to be English teacher coming to our class.The first sentence she said was,"I am pride to be Indian".We were all Giggle ing

Back to the point,the classification as kid's toys is wrong.Yes,they are toys but highly educational and highly entertaining.

Depends on how you look at things thats all. Smiley Reminds me of VC's signature.

That story remnds me of some lecturers in my college also. Just no point reasoning with them.

Why do we need to justify every thing with education, Roll Eyes any ways its a very overrated concept.
