Hi Friends,

I need your advice to build the simplest plane/glider.

Here are some of my queries

1) Which brushless motor I should use?
2) Which ECS?
3) Which Lipo?
4) Which servos
5) I have 3 CH TX & RX so not planning to buy, but if you with you can post link of some good Tx Rx for the benefit of other users.

I have search on net and think that following brushless combo (Motor, prop, ecs) can be used(?)  - Price 1400

For Lipo can I use following ? – Price 985

http://www.rcdhamaka.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=58_59_94&products_id=434

Charger – is it good? Price 1280

http://www.rcdhamaka.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=58_59_96&products_id=511


For servos –  Price 410 * 2 = 820

http://rcforall.co.in/product_info.php/cPath/3_4/products_id/428

Prop saver - 50
http://www.rcdhamaka.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=58_59_93&products_id=405


Total cost is ( 1400 + 895 + 1280 + 820 + 50) 4445

Do you think it's good combination?


I do not have idea about how much weight of my plane will be ? as I am not sure about the material or design. (I am thinking about coro as its very durable)
I am looking for your help to decide should be my first plane and what parts will go well for it.

Other think I had in mind that is the quality of products is good?

Or do you think I should order from hobbyking or somewhere else?


Thank you,
Atul

First you'll have to decide which plane you are going to build. Motor, ESC, prop etc depends on the plane you build. Forget the electronics for now, select a plan and start building. And if you live anywhere near baner don't forget to drop by at Pancard Clubs on weekend between 8.30Am to 11Am, we'll set you up :thumbsup:

Thank you for your reply.

I stay at Kharadi and prefer to go Hadapser gliding center  :) .. but sure I will try to visit Pancard club sometime.

Can you please recommend me any simplest plane?

If you have any link from where I can download the design then that would be great.

Link you gave is really great but the design specification i.e Height, width, length etc etc ...is not there ..

I am looking for design which will have all the details so that i can cut those pieces glue them and my plane will be in proper proportion...


atulrajguru9

spitfire, links you gave are great. I appreciate your help.

I personally have bad experience with piper cub and Cessna kind of look like piper cub to me (http://www.rcindia.org/beginners-zone/so-what's-your-rc-story/msg43289/#msg43289) and think that creating glider will be easy to build and easy to fly.

Can someone please provide me the design for glider please?

Thank you,
Atul

Hi Atul,

Hi Atul
Avispad is good for beginer and easy to build. I build this model with coro.

ritz

I think this will be a good first plane for you. I've seen Mohan's plane in action, its one of the most durable plane on our field. Here is the plan.

use 3mm coro.
Note that in the above post (second image) the dimension is of a completed wing. Attached is the cutout for the wing. You'll have to fold it on the crease to make the wing.

ritz

what is the thickness of coro by which avispad is made up of

Refer my above post. And have some patience man!
This link will give you a general idea about how to build a coro wing.
