Title: Soaring , thermal slope and electric. in India Post by: apatel on September 01, 2012, 02:44:32 AM Hello, i'm from New Zealand and Looking at traveling to India next year for about 5 months. Time to reconect with family and culture. Addicted to RC soaring so want to know if there are anybody slope and thermal flying actvity around India. Would I expect to have problems bringing gliders and rc equipment into the country. Locations to fly especailly around Mumbai ,Goa and Gujarat. Interested in striking up dialouge with like minded people.

We slope soar regularly most weekends near Lonavala Place is fantastic , winds in one direction at a constant 15 ~20 Knots thru the day https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.10150985988959294.445146.641654293&type=1 Check out the pics Title: Re: Soaring , thermal slope and electric. in India Post by: prateek13 on September 01, 2012, 02:27:02 PM I can accompany you in Goa when you come
I am not into soaring but into gliding,3D etc.... so would have fun to see slope soaring Title: Re: Soaring , thermal slope and electric. in India Post by: rcpilotacro on September 01, 2012, 02:49:32 PM if coming to far east to shillong then here is an excellent place marked on GE here 25.33398,92.094118

Depending on wind and lift another thing I like to do is follow the slope @ 3ft height zzzip down the slope holding down elev and the let off the elev , results in a big loop FPV thru the clouds will be cool too Looks like I should plan a sloping trip with you soon |
