Thanks
Aditya G, Nagpur
i can help you build it, but i am not sure about flying that bird.
Thanks for the reply!
Where are you based in Nagpur?
Flying Mini Skysurfer can be explored, I have seen videos of that.

@ Aditya...
Which Glue should be used in building?
Is that available in Nagpur?
Or should I order it from RcBazaar?
Well, I am based in New Nandanvan, can you sms me your mobile number on my mobile mentioned in the first post, if you feel comfortable, you can sent it here.
Thanks
10 or 5 minute epoxy and rubber bands for the wings(i have good ones i can give it to you) :hatsoff:
have you been flying or you are a complete beginner ?
I am a complete beginner, I have a RC Heli but its useless now, and just thought I should have to try a new and that's why ordered this one.
BTW, which model you have? and how long you are into flying?
i make and fly nitro and electric both. flying and building since 2006. but still not good at it because i have to focus on studies too.
What are you pursuing?
economics 12th
Where you used to fly the planes?
Godhni, near Bhosla military school
Sorry, I missed your sms on mobile.
Have you ever tried flying on Reshimbaug ground?
Reshimbaug ground, no. We must be far away from houses and stuff! those are rules one must follow!
what you do? what bought you in this hobby?
right
whats your full name?
aditya Gupta
added you on Facebook, please accept.
So should I order epoxy on RcBazaar or not?
Is it available in Nagpur?
As you said you have it, is it in sufficient amount to build a Mini Sky Surfer?
i have rubber bands, you have to get the epoxy from a hardware store, it will cost you about 25 rupees each and i recommend buying 2 or 3 packs so that we do not run out of glue while building it. 5min epoxy like 'Fevitite' works well with foam.
Great!
What type of rubber bands are these?
these are normal ones but the with is way more so it does not dent the foam. it spreads the tension through out its surface area
i got the bands from a stationary in Bangalore.
Don't they available in nagpur?
never seen them
Ohh
Which camera you have?
d800 Nikon
Great!
Means you love photography too?
What is your interest in wildlife and nature?
bird watching mostly!!
Great!
Where you go for bird watching?
to the botanical garden beside Futala lake. There is a group on FB called "Bird Katta." and i started with them.
Yes I know bird katta.
Which lens you have?
prime 50mm f1.8
and 55-200 f4-5.something
i want to learn product photography and stuff.
How many things you are doing :) but its really great.
If you want, I can suggest where you can learn product photography.
My Mini Skysurfer is dispatched today.
Sure please tell me where I can learn. I am soon going to be doing Ariel photography with my quadcopter.
Oh great ! Its faster than I thought. But you know Indian customs sucks! My quad motors took 2months to arrive and it was sitting in the customs for 50 days out of 60days, I mean how bad is that.
Which camera you are using for aerial photography?
I have ordered my plane from RcBazaar so probable I will get it tomorrow or day after.
Ok so no customs issue !
I do not have any camera right now for Ariel photography, but a 'Gopro hero Hd' is a good camera for that.
Yes, "Gopro hero Hd" is a good camera for Ariel Photography, I saw it on net.
Are you planning to buy one?
I just saw that plane on. RcBazaar and I realized that I had the same plane with a different name and size. So I don't think you will have to spend more than 15mins to assembled that thing. Its pretty simple !
I want to buy that camera, but no money right now!
Wow, I saw the assembly on youtube, also ordered the foam safe glue, but not sure they have included in the package they have dispatched.
Hmm, I am planning to use and try with the key chain spy cam I have.
Epoxy holds better than CA foam safe glue according to my experience.
No problem, we will use the one you suggest.
Yeah they are good, but picture quality isn't all that great if compared to a gopro or a Sony.
That is for sure, its just to take a try.
That foam safe glue is good to repair damage on field because its quick !
I used to fly a Bixler from Hobbyking but is crashed pretty bad and I decided to retire it.
Ok.
What is your opinion about the plane I bought "Mini Sky Surfer"?
Good stable plane for begginers !
Do you think I can learn by myself?
Yes you can if you have enough knowledge about how a plane flies and some experience on a simulator. Or you can buy a autopilot like a did. I know one guy who is selling it for 2 thousand and I use to use the same autopilot and its really good.
But the autopilot needs 3cell battery setup to run.
I don't know about that, what's that 3 cell battery?
Its the battery. I mean 3cells in a lipo battery. Did you order the transmitter and battery packs and charger ?
