hi everyone,
i started this hobby in august 2015. i started with rcpowers f22 jet which did't fly because i did't know the electronic setup and also the jet was a wrong model for me as a beginner than i registered  on rci and made a thread regarding my jet. than i received my first pm from iyer sir and we talked for 45 mins on phone. i did not had depron for making a trainer model so iyer sir sent me a flitetest nutball, a pair of wheels and a propeller of 8x4 (as a gift)  :)nutball was my first succesful model which i also crashed on my first landing :giggle:.
Than i went to Indore to meet iyer sir. i also crashed my guruji's first model there :giggle:. This was my starting of this hobby.
i made some models like mini floater, ft delta, rchelp 48" trainer, ft mustang , school girl, ft22 raptor, ft bloody baron etc.

Nice work!
What is the wingspan and chord?
and Is the linkage connector attached to the wrong end of the control rod?
I thought it was supposed to be attached to the servo arm, rather than the control horn.

The linkage stopper can be attached to any side, or even both sides
