you should build a high winger for a first plane... any design will do, but make sure it's with is above the aircraft with a dihedral or polyhedral... that's a good slow design...

Cessna is not a good trainer plane

Learner plane wing should be camphered to give slow
And steady flight

Build planes like feathers rather than tanks, both handle bullets equally well.

Better to clone something like a sky surfer in terms of being very easy to fly. But for scratchbuilding purposes, blue baby is recommended.

Nitesh: a scale Cessna is NOT a beginners model, unless you do extensive modification, which will ruin the fun of the Cessna. Keep it for later, when you have more flying hours under your belt.

The best thing to do is get in the air as soon as possible. Go for a simple, standard trainer (electric) If you want a readymade, Sky Surfer and Easystar 2 are great: thousands have learnt on them, and these models remain fun even after you gain experience.

If you must build (not a good idea till you have some experience....mistakes tend to be very, very expensive!) go for something like a Blu Baby, or even Tatil's Tiranga...but Corro building does need some skills.

First, get in touch with a flying group in your city, and go regularly to the field, observe and learn. Asking questions on the forum can take you only so far, and no further. Make friends, ask people on the field if you can hold their transmitter for a few seconds etc.

Main thing is get up and go!!

There are many, many fliers from Chennai on this forum. Do a search, find members and PM them. I'm sure you will find someone who lives near you, and you can go to the field with him.

On the topic of Cubs, there are Cubs, and then there are Cubs :D. All cubs are not good as trainers (though many are). I had a cub which could fly inverted, do rolls and loops
