High spirits we have: gravity we flout.



In the quotes below is one of my many letter to them about including RC item in their inventory. I believe they already have a small management team working on this and regularly visit RcIndia. So if they start selling RC then I'm gonna go ahead and take full credit Tongue

This is a suggestion. I build/fly radio control airplanes for a hobby. This hobby has been in the country for over 50 decades but have recently started picking up. I have been in this hobby for four years and have seen it grow rapidly. Initially we had to buy everything from US/Germany/China but now lots of online hobby shops have started in the country which has made equipment and hobby parts affordable. I noticed that flipkart has started add different category of products to it Catalog and this thought crossed my mind 'what if flipkart started selling RC(radio control) products. I don't have time right now but will be happy to provide more info if required. I request you to take a look into this segment, if things workout, thousand of hobbyist will have a good place to shop RC hobby parts. Bellow is a link to India's biggest aeromodelling forum http://www.rcindia.org/ Below are some links to most popular RC hobby shops in India http://www.rcdhamaka.com/ http://www.rcbazaar.com/

I spoke with their Customer Support Executive who transferred my call to their Sales Support Team. I queried the Align T Rex and wanted to know what exactly it was. They called me back after two hours to say that it was a "battery operated, radio controlled Helicopter." I then queried if the picture was of the actual product and what was the size of the Helicopter. "I will check all details and get back to you within some time." Still waiting for the call...........

I think you guys need a dose of cold reality here - there is absolutely no way
that you are going to get an Align TRex for that kind of money.

This is just wishful thinking

It'll be hard to surpass the standards set by RCD and RCB but let's hope they work as well as the aforementioned LHSes.

This was certainly not sarcasm but just a light hearted play on "credit / cash".

If this seems hurtful, in any way, to anyone, I apologise .  My sensibilities appear to be, possibly, far removed from reality, if this was construed as something unpalatable and I would, therefore, be constantly having to worry on what and what not to say/ comment on.
