Today morning was flying my Kaiser with Gauravag..... we both were together with our models in the air.... For me it was a new place to be flying at.  After a while I planned to land and was looking out for gaurav's VT Allrounder... and as my model turned for the approach it found a perch on a BIG peapal tree.  Well.... though it was a write off as the model hit quite hard and a big noise at the top of the tree.  Well... ran to the place and saw the model sitting very high on the top of the tree.... Luckily there were some boys there and they helped me... one of then climbed up and shook that branch.  Soon the model fell down.
To everyones surprise it was in good health and did not seem to have even a scratch.  At home I checked the wing... there is a slight damage and I will repair it today... Will be fit for flying tomorrow morning.

By the way friends my history of doing similar things date back to 1982. It is:-
1982 - 1985..... flew into trees twice... both times flying the kaiser with Sharma diesel 3.2 cc engines.  During this period was once flying the Easy Stick covered with decorative wrapping paper and aluminum foil... and flew the model into high tension wires... suddenly there was a bright flash and the burnt pieces of my model were littered all over...
Earlier was flying Gaurav's trainer and came into a landing but decided to go round.... only to hit the lone pole in the entire ground.
AND NOW THIS.......

My apologies to have highjacked this thread of yours Dear Sanjay..... but I am sure you will forgive me for that as most time i did this kind of a thing it was a Kaiser in the air.

Moral of the story..... if you are flying in a new ground look around for obstructions carefully.... always have a spotter for the first couple of flights and never never ever fly two models together for the first flight.
Best wishes.

Thats a tiger come back

 

ordered the pg 15 kit from lotus hobby on wednesday and collected the kit from main post office on monday (today) because the post man dont know how to bring and was afraid of breakable property of the parcel.so, he told me to collect it from the main office.
really excited to build

I notice this flying ground is the bus parking area in front of Power Grid office in Gurgaon. I spotted this place (for flying my models) long ago, but since I stay in Noida, the thought of travelling all the way up to Gurgaon on a holiday morning put me off !!
The videos are good but not showing the landings !!

sir,
can u send the picture of  upper wing kaiser mk ii model and also the motor and other required details , i would be greatful. thx pls mail on

All details are in the build log. Why don't you go through it? If you find going through the log an effort, you will find building it ..............

Sanay, if after going through the build log you have any specific queries, feel free to ask.

Avoid PMs; post over here. That way it could help others too

i have also bought kaiser mkII kit from sharama aeromodels

and i also bought 2.5 cc engine. I new to this field

Futher, I am taking assistance of NCC guy

but i not sure about my 2.5 cc engine

kindly recommend between  2.5cc engine or brushless motor of same strenght

chd

Why don't you read the whole thread? It is clearly written about the brushless motor

Re.: Engine, let's see what your "NCC guy" advises 

@
Should i get an Alsatian or a Pug?
Depends on what you are looking for.
Economy? Performance? Ease of use?
You can get an electric motor of equal performance.
But the support equipment is different.
The running costs may or may not be different, depending on how often you fly.

If you analyse it yourself, you'll know the reasons for your choice.
If instead of analysing the pros and cons yourself, you prefer to ask others, then you'll get advice that may or may not suit you in the long run.

If you had asked a simple question like what is the electric equivalent of a 2.5cc glow, you could expect a factual answer.

Decide whether you want to go electric or glow. Both will work.

Dear Sanjay Sir,

Recently made a Kaiser Mk II with a modified fuselage... i.e. just made a nice cockpit and the upper surface on the fuselage.  Rest all remains the same.... will be putting up its pictures soon for all to see...

I been a great fan of the Kaiser and now have both the earlier model and the Mk II with me....

soon the pictures of the two will be here...

Happy Flying...

Wonderful! Looking forward to seeing it

Sir I Love you,Your planes, and your RC room. You Rock !!!
Regards,
Aman.

Dear Sanjay Sir,

Here are a few pictures of the Kaiser Mk II in the making... Though by now most of it is already done.  If all goes well.... probably the flist flight will be on this Sunday.  The fuselage is made of Japanica sheet and Blue foam (given to me by Gaurav Agarwal).  The tail surfaces are of Balsa strips and covered with computer paper (balsa sheet 4 mm given to me by Vishal Sharma of Sharma Models) and the wing out of HD thermocol taken out of packing material..... 1 inch in thickness.  Used fevicryl colours to paint it.  The connections, controls and wheels are to be put in place.

OK...... I need some advice from you... You had made the same model out of a kit and then somehow it crashed and the wing broke.  Can you please let me know what went wrong or what do you think was the problem so that I do not repete the same errors and end up in a pile up.  Your advice will be highly appreciated as it will probably same my model on the first flight.

Best wishes to all....
Shobhit

Some more....
