@joban13,
950mm Yak12 from RCB.
Even has flaps.
Needs tx/rx and 2s lipo of about 1000-1500mah.
Bought for a newbie (RCI member) who never came back.
Then flown by a another newbie RCI member, who cracked the cowl and broke the prop.
Still have one original prop.
New cowl made.
I've myself flown it one single day. 4 flights on a 1300mah 2s without recharge.
Flies well. If reqd I can do a video next Sunday.
PM if interested.
Have a used 40 size glow trainer too, if glow is what you want.

Interesting situation Joban.

Most people like to go with a Sky Surfer or Easy Star, but you obviously want ground take-off capability

What you haven't mentioned (although I am sure you meant to) is durability. Especially for a beginner

Whereas most foamie trainers are quite robust, where they frequently lose out is on the landing gear. The foundation is usually not very strong.

Do also consider the (rather good) Corro High Wing Trainers offered by Kinetic Hobbies and Gaurav Aggarwal (?) in Allahabad. As a beginner you will frequently have rough landings.(I still do  ;) ;D ) These models are quite robust, and relatively easy to repair (as you will unfortunately but inevitably have to do sometime)

@Sanjay Thanks for the response, will surely consider this.... happy with all the responses i have been getting. Thanks guys :)

Sir i didn't quite understand.
Kinetic hobbies only sell foam models and the mini floater on their website.

We actually build and sell coroplast/biofoam high wingers. However, they are only on demand and not for sale on our website as they aren't cheap.

@Joban13, if you are a beginner , the best buy for you would be the mini floater especially for that price.. You can still modify its wings for your needs.

@ vishalrao
I did not know that sir!
Nice to know!
Thanks

IMHO you should go for a pusher type plane and save your expensive elecronics.

Thats what i have in priority a pusher plane, i like the drifter RCB... Anyone knows anything about the drifter plz share... Price and all is perfect but the shipping is like 1300 which takes it away from my budget... KB mini floter looks nice but i wanted to start with a nicer plane
