hey guys,

Till yesterday, I didnt that there is such a grt community for RC lovers. I came here for my son, 8yrs. we bought many rtf planes and they all now in bad conditions due to crash or something...

I just need help here to know if I can buy any rc plane RTF kit from vortex rc or from any where that can give wings to my son.

This is our first time when we trying something like this.

Thanks in advance guys..

keep flying
samit

RcBazaar is better for rtf kits, vortex RC is more for arf type kits. There are a lot of planes in RC bazaar , check there.

Welcome to RCI.

A few thoughts for you consideration:

1. Check if you are trying to fulfill your own desires, or the child's
2. I've seen that kids in 5-10 yr range are really happy with something like the ARF EASY hand launch glider from RCBazaar. Unbreakable, not expensive (Rs 630). Unfortunately out of stock.
3. If you feel you must get (yourself/son) into RC, there is a way. Here in Indore we have a pro who trains RC pilots using his own equipment. No investment in equipment, just tuition fee. He's really very good, especially with kids.
4. I'm sure you could find a similar arrangement in Hyderabad
5. This is a wonderful hobby, but potentially frustrating, especially if you wish to launch a kid without being an old aeromodeller yourself!
6. If you want to build your first RC model, learn to fly, and then teach your son, that's not a good route to give him wings!

Best wishes

welcome to the hobby sir your kid is 8 years i suggest first build hand launch or rubber band power propeller small planes for your kid .if you want to fly and  there is nobody to teach you rc flying  download any simulator on your mobile phone start practice and feel the controls then practice first on good pc simulator. your first model could be 2s power small park flyer of weight around 250  grms you can self build it using coro sheet or thermocol.. if  you want to buy your first rc plane then i suggest buy skysurfer from rcbazaar i have this model from 2013 and it is still in good condition .  visit http://www.rcindia.org/electric-planes/  section on this site you will find lots of interesting planes which you can build and fly.......

Unfortunately rc bazaar has stopped selling sky surfer. they currently sale "Phoenix" which is equally good if not better.

But the plane size really depends on how big flying field is accessible to you. And in my opinion you should be needing a flier to guide you.
Hyderabad should have some good flying groups. Ideally you should contact them for flying with, they should be more than happy to help you.
To find them out you can search this forum.

No radio, no motor, nothing. Just a starting point for kids to enjoy. Details here.

It's obviously too expensive for what it provides. But it saves the 10k or so that you'd waste if your son wasn't too interested...

Meanwhile, why don't you start in this hobby yourself? It's wonderful. And your son would tag along, watch, and get inspired!

Best wishes

Multiplex fox is a great little glider. You can later modify it to RC with electronics.
Google "Multiplex fox mod"... some interesting stuff.
