Hi all,
Could any one give a few tips to make an rc heli?
I can't buy one so I want to make it all by my myself.
Hi Ritwik
welcome to RCIndia
well for your question i leave it to be answered by other senoirs [anwar bhai,gaurav sir,vinay sir...]
anyways scratch building a heli is a huge task in itself
i would advice u to start with planes or buy a cheap 3ch co-ax heli
If your reason for not buying one is finances, we need to be pretty clear that building one will cost you more than if you bought one of the mass produced ones ! :( There are economies of scale at work when the small 3channel ones get mass produced, which cannot be matched when you try make a single piece.
The savings in building *planes* comes from substitution of materials, which is extremely hard when it comes to helis. As much as I would like to encourage your intentions, I truly feel we will be misleading you and giving you false hope by suggesting that this is easily achievable.
Please consider buying a simple heli to start with, or even better, start with trying to build a foam plane from plans.
If buying an rc heli is cheaper, then colud anyone tell the lowest price in which I could get one?
try homeshop18
they have 3ch co-ax. helis for rs1499 including shipping
and a wide variety of helis is available
u can pay from a variety of payment options[my favourite is cash on delivery]
Thanks a lot .
Ritwik - Local stores / malls may carry these at lower rates. Unfortunately you will have to seek them out yourselves. Note that these are available in many plain department stores, not necessarily RC focused ones.
I'll see- There is a local store where I once saw an rc heli. I 'll try to get it.
i prefer u get either model art heli being sold by mr.sai or homeshop18 ones
anyways do get a 3ch one atleast
something interesting

hi,
i think the best way to start is not a 3ch but a 4ch coaxial because the 3 channel normally have a motor on the tail for forward flight.
This imbalance makes this heli only a good 2 channel, if you try to use the forward flight it goes everywhere
thats is just a very personal advise from me.
Thanks for the advice.
I would have suggested the same, except for concern about the budget.
the more channels u have the better it is
but first we should look at his budget also
"something is better than nothing"
Buying anything under Rs 2000 is in my budget.
i don't think u can 4 ch in that budget
so thats why i told to buy 3ch
do checkout the links
I saw this one on TV and was really good.
