Thats what ppl will call you if they find you throwing coro around on roads at 10 at night 

Enough, too much of laziness, last week's Pic's are still waiting to be uploaded. that's what I told myself this morning. And make myself uploading pictures of 17th April 2011.

I was just wondering. If any body is bothered to see, Pictures posted by me ? I got my answer on the same day, i.e April 17th. Many Flyers asked me that I shall continue to post pics on the forum as who ever is not present gets a update and who all are present comes to know how they were looking on that day, Ha... Ha... Ha.......

So here goes Pictures....

love your pics, keep up the good work maybe you should make a separate thread for it.
BTW would like to know more about this plane; if possible.

Thanks for Appreciation, This will keep me going. HA ha ha.....


These were some college kids came first time on field. Somebody told me name of this plane......, just slipped.

I think some body present that day would like to answer your question.

Hey Akshay,
They above pics of Hoskote and the flyers there are amazing...its definitely a perfect place to fly park flyers and small aircrafts
did you go to hoskote last sunday(24th april) ??
I've built a JAS-39 Gripen (52inches long, 30 inch wingspan) and i really wish to test it on a large, safe, environment...
I have never been to hoskote...   I really have to travel with someone...my parents are quite busy.
can you tell me more details, like how many people come and at what time, till what time ?
Thank you !

People usually reach there by 8 and will leave around 1. Last time there were around 8-10 guys flying

@foamybuilder - ohh...and what type of models do they fly ? electric (ofcourse) , nitro/glow ?? gas ??
And will you be going there this coming weekend ?

I think gas or nitro were there. I dont know details about that as I am purely electric. 2 nitro were there and rest were electric easy star, f22 and some other planes. Someone had brought a mustang too.ya i think i wl b going

@foamybuilder - check your inbox..i sent you a PM.

Hi Samanth,
                This place is very huge, you can fly any plane here, but problem is we don't have tarmac for take offs and landings.

People reach early in the morning and fly upto 3-4 in the afternoon. Samanth which area are you from. Can take lift from some Rcer. May be you can join me.

I would love to join you !! I live in Vijaynagar... where do you live ?

Vijaynagar will be quite out of way for us, we leave from K'Mangala.

ohh...damn...
do you by any chance, know anyone who lives near vijaynagar ? can be jayanagar, bansankri, rajajinagar,  ?

Hope somebody from that area sees your post  and reply

FoamyBuilder, where in K'mangala do you guys meet up?
Would love to meet up with you guys! I live in Koramangala..
Sorry Samanth

Can be in touch with Ujjwaana or me.

@ujjwal - I am already in the Hoskote RC Flyers community !
       
i'll somehow try and convince my parents to drop me

Alright guys, according to google earth, the distance from my house to the Hoskote Flyers Site is 31.4Km !! 

I have a Trex-450, scratchbuilt Extra 300 and JAS-39 Gripen, and an FPV Plane(which is yet to come)

Do you think its worth travelling more than 62.8Km (going + returning) to fly my models over a large area ? thats what my parents asked me...

I said that I not only get to fly them, but I also get to meet a lot of Hobbyists like myself and have a good time

So please tell me your views if its worth travelling so much.

Thank you
