Cooperation between LHS to promote RC Hobby and activities in the forum !

[SI74]

And one more que to LHS, is shipping depron( of course without breaking it), that cumbersome? For eg:, When I buy carbon fibre from RCSportz, they ask me to pay for a plastic tube (50Rs)!for packing so that it could be sent safely, and I received it without damage. Why can't similar (large ) plastic boxes hold depron? Just asking, I am not into this business anyway.

The flite test guys do world of flight expos where they go to schools and places and do builds with the community.

I think hobbyists and LHS both should start YouTube channels with build/flight/review videos and using the forum, let's promote the channels and grow their following. We can target it to be very local and spread using Whatsapp groups/email etc to get the word out.

I also really agree about Depron - it was very hard for me to find it at first but it turns out the Flite Test guys use foamboard, which is the stuff architecture students make models out of, and its available in stationary shops. It's very durable and the Mighty Mini Arrow I made out of it is quite sturdy. Depron may be hard to get, but I'm sure you guys could stock foamboard.

If LHS want to take it a step further, they can sell pre-cut foamboard to make shipping easier, too. You can just keep foamboard and cut according to whatever orders you guys get. Just a thought

In Surat, I found enough foamboard for a Mighty Mini Arrow for Rs 400. If you guys were talking about 1000 rs vouchers, why not go and do some builds in colleges and schools? Talk to the college, set up a booth, and do some builds. Give some away, and sell some while you are at it

Just my thoughts.

I really appreciate what LHS are doing for the hobby in India - their prices are incredibly competitive and their service is far better than what anyone can expect from Banggood or Hobbyking.

Happy flying!

Guys start making depron in india. And manufacture each and everything in india. That'll keep prices low and shipping easy . Make in india.
Looks easy but difficult to do.
But we are indians we just do it anyhow.

@Gulzaar  Agree completely.

[SI74]

My LOCAL customers don't care much about price or discounts.

Good for you.

[Ahmad Ilyas]

@S174
Yeah rcbazaar gives discount and those guys are very good and  actually talking that I don't want to argue
Doesn't mean you sir but it reference for other members

@lhs
You guys can also start some aeromodelling events and also learning events for others who want to start in the hobby
Also flitted have such a group as mentioned above which do such things and they help people outside US to also do such events you guys can become member of that

And As Kumaran sir might know flitter want their (special)foamboard to reach everyone they are making people in different countries distributors of dftb or ft foam
And soon from Germany we can get dftb
But the price of shipping and what about customs

No lhs in India wants to import and ship dftb
But it is all because of the container that Adams plastics use

[Ahmad Ilyas]

Sorry I mean dtfb

[Tanmay.mathur]

Yup bring some foam making chemicals too to make our own arf.

Proper customer service by all LHSes is the #1 priority/wish for most people I know of !

[SI74]

Another initiative( my wish)  by LHS is to offer different FPV COMBOS (PNF) in various price ranges with videos of them in action, and this would definitely attract more and more people for sure.

And cheap fpv tx rx sets too. Like under 2.5k for vtx vrx

@VibrantHobbies RCM will be in full co-operation with any/all event ideas you have planned. However, we might like to change some T&C when finalising.
