Title: Hey! Akshay here from Navi Mumbai.
Post by: Xodin1990 on March 06, 2011, 04:45:13 PM
Just wanted to say hi to all you guys. Have been reading stuff here for a while. You all seem to be a great bunch of people!
I just started out RC flying recently. Successfully managed to take off a Snowball!http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=930241 (http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=930241) a couple of days back. My first flight .... i was ecstatic! Although i crashed it almost immediately  :| Here is a link to the video on Facebook.  http://www.facebook.com/video/video.php?v=10150415267135321&saved (http://www.facebook.com/video/video.php?v=10150415267135321&saved) ... but nevertheless... i  plan to build another one and fly again very soon.
I was hoping i could maybe see someone fly at the airoli flying field and learn from them. So if any one is willing to help me it did be great.

Hi Akshay ,

Congratulations on your start.

Carloz has kindly offered to get me started off and I hope to take him up on it soon.

Since he flies in Airoli too ,maybe you can send Carloz a PM in case he does not notice your thread. Possibly we could combine and get started.

Cheers
Thomas

Videos such as these are some how the most beautiful ones :thumbsup: 

There is nothing like seeing a beginner start with his own creation, then being positive even when it crashes ! 

Next time (1) post a build log and (2) choose a bigger field to fly if possible (more sim time may be a viable alternative).
