Thanks everyone!
@Anand: Couldn't have Saoji, had mom-made noodles instead!
@Husein: I'm super super-exited too, won't be able to sleep tonight!
@KALYANPRODHAN: Of course, sir, would certainly try to attract others to this hobby. The problem is, people here tend to go for electronics and robotics as they need relatively less input and give more results.
@zonuna: Don't envy anyone. As I've come to realize, it's about enjoying and learning!

Congrats Swapnil! Hope to see your flying video soon. 

Anwar, Congrats to you too! You are doing such a awesome job for development of this hobby in India. 

congrats Swapnil....

Thanks everyone! Couldn't post anything as I had exams.

Yesterday was a double treat again! Came back home from last exam and an hour later it arrived! Never had a cooler summer!
Just waiting for the electronics to arrive now, will start building then!

Last year at sp4mm3r someone told me their computer-radio cost more than 50k and I was like "Man, this stuff isn't for people like me", and here I am holding the awesome Futaba T7CHP!

QuoteI guess everyone is conveniently forgetting/missing the fact that for a beginner, the best HELP is to just read the information here to learn about new things, and NOT ask questions about things already discussed

I'm really thankful to Anwar sir for the forum as well as the radio. Really appreciate your efforts sir, as do so many. Keep up the good work!

The charger is coming to you separately... someone (who I am very thankful to!) forgot to put it in the package

Good to see that such an awesome radio has gone into the right hands

Swapnil

Apart from the batt, sent you some electronics too, motor , 9 gms servos and of course like you asked , sim. use it well

Radio is Mhz but the manual is Ghz? 

By default or by design?

There was no manual with it, so I have included the manual for a 7C 2.4Ghz radio, as most the information is similar between them.

congrats swapnil!!!!!!!!!

congrats swapnil

I'm so sorry sir, my gmail acc. didn't show updates to this topic, so couldn't reply.

Yes, I did receive the charger and also bought a 220-110 converter.
I don't understand the bit about cycling. Does it mean we have to periodically discharge and charge the batts. fully to avoid the memory effect?

And once again, thank you very much for everything!

Well, I'm pretty nervous about having such an awesome thing as I'm a newbie. And I'm not sure mine are the 'right hands' (as compared to a more experienced person). But, for this radio, I certainly have 'caring' hands.

Sir, the parcel you sent didn't have any 9 gm servos. Do the speed post guys check (and mis-place) stuff we send?

Well, I downloaded the original manual and it's gonna take me like 3 billion years to read and understand it!

Thanks praveen and santhosh! I've started shopping for stuff and will soon start building!
