iam planning to build a plane with foam with my friends so i need help
is cessna a good plane for begineers if not which other is good enough
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...

aniket a cessna is a high winger with lil dihidral ...yup ur good t go :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
is cessna easy to make if not which is easy to make and have good looks
nitesh when building from scratch it takes effort to build and make it look really good,u can make a cessna and give it a scale paint job
Cessna is not a good trainer plane
Learner plane wing should be camphered to give slow
And steady flight
For the first plane build the BLU baby:

How about J3 Piper. Its a slow flyer.
does anyone have plans for j3 piper cub foam version
Better to clone something like a sky surfer in terms of being very easy to fly. But for scratchbuilding purposes, blue baby is recommended.
two winged plane would also be good
come on guys post something
try to keep the prop as a pusher, so it doenst get damaged in a crash....

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!!
thank you sanjay sir i have finally dwcided iam going to build the j3 piper cub I have got the plans
there is no flying field near my house what to do I even dont know any flying group I know only one person v2 eagle sir and that to I have not met him personally
and I asked him where he flies he replied somewhere near shollinganallur which is very far from my house
now what to do
Edit: forgot to add sir
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
but j3 is

All can be aerobatic; depends on design
However, you seem insistently stubborn on doing what you want, which is not an entirely bad thing, so good luck!
