Hmmmm Good work. My suggestion, try n place the camera on wings to avoid prop clutter & take some good head on shots so as we can see you in screen. Good luck.

Will do that this weekend.

Here is one of Rs120 kits (including all hardware, but no electronics) built up !

More pictures, including the supplied hardware for holding the battery using a rubber band, and a tail wheel equivalent.

Great pictures for a small camera. Good going.

Sandeep sir Lowinger Flying at Karkala

Hi,
   This week after finally assembling ARF ultimate biplane 120(from Rc Dhamaka),along with extra260(from jack hobbies),engine used is ASP 120 AR 2stroke on both the planes,went to our flying field with my fellow flyers.For the first time took off my biplane,flew it for about 13 min or so.The engine was a bit over power for the plane,while flying never opened the throttle fully,throttle at midstick was more than enough for normal flying.After 13min or so landed the plane sucessfully and then refuelled it again,then took off for my second flight did some low speed passes and then high speed passes along with some barrel rolls and then landed again after 15 to 20 min or so.Enjoyed it a lot.heres some pics of the bi plane.

Yesterday I went out looking for a new field and managed to find a awesome one near my house.. It has >1 foot thick dry grass all over so landings are soft.. And there are some mud paths so I can take the car right onto the field to facilitate setup/charging etc. So I took my Glidiator out to the field and flew.. It flew so nicely that I felt confident enough to do a few loops and stall turns.. And this is my 2nd flight (first being the maiden of the glidiator) ever so i'm feeling really good.. Oh and the crows were following the plane around and trying to catch it which was pretty cool too..

This is my first post in this thread... I went to a field near my house.. iTs by the road side.. On saturday tried to fly my cessan but crashed (it was foamy) so no much damage... couldnt understand why it crashed broke a prop... today went again and hand launched it then after getting a height realised the directions are reversed on the TX... Heart beat was rising it was hectic when i go right it turns left and it was more scary when it turned nose pointing towards me totally lost direction but managed to land it safly on a coconut tree..
thanks to the local people they helped me to get it on the ground.. Problem was identified as the aelirons should be reversed on the tx... retired for today now next week..

I hope the damage was minimal !  You should have taken pictures

Sorry bhai.. I didnt have a camera at that time.. It was cooll a guy came in lungi took out an arival(malayalam) tied it to a long bamboo stick and he chopped off the leaves of the coco tree.. he he it was kind of okk.. Now me feeling more confident... feels like i can fix the damages and just go on and on...

You should have performed the ground check first before taking off. This is a common mistake and time and again it is reinforced that ground check is a must before taking off any model, but people often forget in anxiety and excitement. Please follow some protocols to avoid such mis-happenings.

finally got to shoot some vids of flying this week... my friend got to fly first (this is my first vid so bear with me for my excellent camera works) but later when i took over to fly i had the worst crash ever, my MSH protos in in complete pieces, had a thermal shut down - motor was over heated and my lipo bubbled.. but rebuilding it again...

Wow  

So you needed to use a lower pinion, to keep the head-speed and temperatures down ? Or was it just a case of inadequate electronics ?

how do u find that microbeast  compared to v-bar 4.0-5.0?

what is your set up if u got a thermal?

on my logo 400 i have no problem with jazz or jive 80 even in 40+ celcius without heat sink
2800 rpm and throw it around as hard as i can

any lower pinion will take the HS to belwo 2200 rpm plus, the governor works well after 80-85% throttle curve with around 2600 rpm... the issue is with the motor, it heats like insane (you can burn your skin easly after one flight) and the ESC shuts down sensing overheating. have to get a scorpion 880KV, which is on my other fbl protos and never had any issues..

and the beast is excellent and from my view is better than the v bar and value of money.. set up is quite simple and can be done on the field (no need for laptops on the grounds)

ahh u got that old hacker motor, throw it in the bin.

cool with the micro beast, heard thad people cant really feel much difference between v4 and and the beast exept the tail that should hold slightly better in v4 like in a tail slide and stuff.

u got v5 on your mini?

I couldn't find any takers to build a funjet with me so I took what was left of my "Overpowered pusher jet" and turned it into a slow flier.

I also took my Cruiser with the modified wing and my f-14D Skyray out and flew them most of day on Sunday. I took 6 batteries and my field charger and had a blast.

Had some nice time with the RC8 last week. Buggies and Truggies are the way to go. I havent bashed ever since the RCPA track has come up. My Revo is on the shelf. I need to get her out.

Summary of RC action here in Allahabad :


Enjoy the Coldplay and the action !

Nice

Wonder why the pineapple box was landed on the tarmac, should have used the grass ?

@gaurav
Very nice video and editing.. 
You guys have a great flying place.
Enjoy!

Nice Video

nice video.. and nice 3D skills... great...
