Hi all,
being out of town, i am missing RC a lot. $:-\$
Currently stated at mumbai, and now travel through public conveyance(LT and buses).
So i need a portable fixed winger so that wings can be dismantled and fixed whenever required.
Ease of transportation will also help me to take plane back home..
I want to go for electrics.
Would like to go for lesser wing span ( wing span< 1000)
I want any beginner to intermediate plane.

Any plans, link, suggestion is appretiated..

Why don't you try a PBF? It's really portable, small and no need for dismantling anything! Great for flying in small parks once you get the hang of it! It does not have great looks but is really fun to fly and really crash resistant.

Here are a few links:

Go for Nine eagle skysurfer...or HK Atom
Thats the best portable!!

Anything with a fixed tail section may get damaged in transit, if not careful.

This one may work pretty well. Looks like the electronics on the belly needs to be protected, or put them on top !
