hi guys,
this is my 1st kit build thread here. Kindly give your reviews with this build.
i have been flying with glow engines from the time i got started in the hobby and seeing so much here the inclination of scratch build society of the forum towards electrics i decided to give it a shot.

so i ordered a 3ch Banana kit from India Hobby Center - kolkata. I saw one of them displayed at the center and was in love with it immediately, it had a classic stick looks (i ve always been a fan of the stick), and ordered two of them.

will post the sneak peek of the kit latter,

Motor: KA22-10S 1200kv
esc: 30A with BEC
battery: 11.1v/15c 1200mAH LiPo
2 mini servos from Hobby Center

will post the specs of the model and pics of the kit soon....

here is the 1st sneak peek of the kit,
already started feeling good abt it

India Hobby Centre, Kolkata? That is nostalgic. All the best!

My late gradpa had  to spend 200 back in 1990 to find IHC, CP, Delhi ! When I went there in my student time, it was already closed. So Sad!

if IHC is  still running at a lower note , would some one in Kolkatta volunteer to give such contemporary 'Original' Hobby shop some online presence? At list photo , small catalog of what they still store ?  Its so sad that they are no longer prominent to tap the R/C scenario which they watered in such gulling times of closed market (pre-liberalization)

well i am working on it....
i m in touch with mr rishi... lets see how it goes....

here is the latest update with the build

just for the record here is my 1st scratch built plane and my 1st trainner back in 2000

Hey Harsh,
Did you complete the Banana?
Do you other Kits Mr Rishi/IHC Sells ? I have not found many Kit sellers LHS and would great to drop down there when I visit Kolkata next.

YES, there are many kits that IHC sells. Infact Rishi sir had given me their pricelist which has RTF models, construction kits, chuck glider kits, catapult glider kits two line glider kits, free flight models, control link trainers, diesel engines and much more. I can't remember the whole list of models. Hopefully, if i can find that pricelist(i don't know where i have kept it) ill upload a photo of it.
