Thats great.. Saurabh please let me know when u go next.. the timings. i'll like to come along.

Sure. Mpp !!!

You can reach me at 9004548889. However, since the monsoons are here, it is unlikely we will be going there soon. You can call and check if we are flying there. You can surely join us.

Cheers!!!

again flew my addiction on the christ college ground, this time a little more aerobatics includes a bit of hovering tooooo 

watch the video

Nice to watch this in HD   So you asked the future Indian cricket team to wait for a while when you were flying ?

I still remember when the Multiplex ducted fan model fell into thick bushes next to a house not too far from the Christ College ground.  All the women and children of the house ran inside, and barricaded themselves behind closed doors ! They had not seen us fly, and all of a sudden something falls from the sky with a sound, and then whenever we applied throttle in our efforts to locate the model, the ducted fan in the model would make a big sound, scaring the life out of these folks !!!   Can you imagine something falling into bushes in front of your house and making hissing noises every once in  a while ?!?!?! (add to that... if you have never seen RC models!)

They were much relieved as the hunting/search party moved in and they carefully opened the door and pointed us towards were the noises where coming from !  We had plenty of laughs seeing their reactions !

Also, looks like the servo jitters are still there... have you tried rerouting the wires ?

3 Cheers for the 17 month old pilot.

As many real seniors on the forum have already explained, try to avoid the 'Radio' or the 'Plane'. If you want to convince, try 'Robots' [] - they too use LiPo, Servo etc na!!

Hi Santhosh

looks like your plane is shivering with cold 

here is a link to a problem similar to yours...maybe you can find out the reason by having a look at it..something to do with the covering i guess...

Hi guys

Well this was not exactly this week..but a lot earlier. In 2007 or 2008 PAA (Pune Aeromodellers Association) conducted an airshow around Diwali.

This was my first real contact with RC planes.

The size of the crowd and their response is huge ! 

One huge side-effect of this is that it helps showcase the hobby as a legal thing to local law enforcement personnel.

Went to the abandoned air strip to fly 4:30 am in the morning.....enjoyed alot.....chased  away cows grazing nearby and a doog also....was not able to shoot a video because we did not take with us our camera...........,one can imagine two people on an  activa....two trainers...and a Tx....ad 16kms trip.... and enjoying jalebees after that....a morning worth enjoying

Dear all,

Wanted to share this little mishap that happened to me over the weekend,
Well, as every weekend, me along with my fiancee had gone window shopping to a mall here in Kuwait, after some time as usual, we ended up at Carrefour shopping groceries and ration.
And as always, I sneak to the toys section to check on new innovations on display. What I seen that day was a beautiful Hughes MD 500 co axial heli with gyro and pilots, along with the fleet, displayed were some little indoor helis, a 3.5 channel dragon, a 3 channel Air wolf and a Apache AH64.
This Hughes was huge, so I instantly put that in my trolley and rode back to the grocery section.
Once I was home, I did some indoor hovering to check the consistency of the gyro, I have to say..amazing piece of a machine..
days passed, planned to go out to do some flying, but backed out due to high humidity and heat in Kuwait.
Hence, went on again to fly indoors..yesterday, when I was doing some indoor hovering, my colleagues, the usual onlookers were on my tail asking questions about the make and from where I got this...
Then, after its 3rd charge, something bad happened, I was 4 Mins into flight and landed to get a sip of water, my colleague, asked me if he could try flying it, to which I readily agreed,(its so maneuverable that it looks easy to fly)
so I placed it in the middle of the room and asked him to be a little sensitive on the throttle. The poor guy pulled the throttle so high that she went right at the ceiling and banged her main rotors  which broke her top blades on the hinges that once held a fan..and his nervousness was such that he pulled the throttle down to zero in no time shooting her down to the ground like a bomb!
Shes 560grms in weight...
When I lifted her, I knew I had to invest on blades!
That was the rise and fall of a beautifully crafted heli in less then 2 weeks!

Oath Taken: Never allow an armature to pull somebody's throttle!

That was what I mostly did during this week!

Regards,

Dorwin

Scale seems to be a huge obsession

Some more action videos from Capt. Ramesh.  Must be the DMA/Mundka field.

Was planning to hold another get together at Irinjalakuda with Santhosh bhai this Sunday, did not work out because of other family commitments.  So Santhosh came by my house, and we did the receiver wiring and radio setup for his new Trex 600 ESP.  Did some test hovering outside the house. Also spent some time tuning the Mini Titan too.

I am expecting a Trex 600 ESP video from Santhosh bhai soon

Hoping to see others posting their weekend RC activities !

sure i will post some videos of trex 600.nothing more to say you are a master in setting up the helis

working this week on my new C-17 build, made a small prototype and now dong the cutting of foam board..
