Just wanted to say hi to all you guys. Have been reading stuff here for a while. You all seem to be a great bunch of people!
I just started out RC flying recently. Successfully managed to take off a Snowball!http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=930241 (http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=930241) a couple of days back. My first flight .... i was ecstatic! Although i crashed it almost immediately :| Here is a link to the video on Facebook. http://www.facebook.com/video/video.php?v=10150415267135321&saved (http://www.facebook.com/video/video.php?v=10150415267135321&saved) ... but nevertheless... i plan to build another one and fly again very soon.
I was hoping i could maybe see someone fly at the airoli flying field and learn from them. So if any one is willing to help me it did be great.

Hey good to see you here
Hi Akshay ,
Congratulations on your start.
Carloz has kindly offered to get me started off and I hope to take him up on it soon.

Since he flies in Airoli too ,maybe you can send Carloz a PM in case he does not notice your thread. Possibly we could combine and get started.
Cheers
Thomas
Videos such as these are some how the most beautiful ones :thumbsup:
There is nothing like seeing a beginner start with his own creation, then being positive even when it crashes !
Next time (1) post a build log and (2) choose a bigger field to fly if possible (more sim time may be a viable alternative).
Akshay welcome to the forum, Right said fred, gr8 place and people ;D
hi.akshay,

Thanks for all the kind words guys.
@Anwar Will definitely post a build log next time, and yeah, will choose a bigger flying field too. This time i was just too excited so took it to the nearest field ;D
@Carloz I have saved your number from another thread. I could come on this wednesday if that works for you. I have an off on wednesdays.
@Thomas How about this wednesday ?
Akshay Jain
I am cool with Wednesday or any other day as long as it is a post lunch affair. Just a late riser ;) !!
well .... Carloz just mentioned that he flies in the morning at 8.
Please go right ahead.Maybe you gentlemen can include me the next time there is a post noon rendezvouz.
Hi Akshay,
