Radio control
The first step to the world of radio control flying is of course R/C gliding.Of course u can start with powered straight away ,but starting with gliders is always a good idea.It will help u get the feel of R/C controls at slower speeds,and of course less money is blown up in a crash!!.But this however doesnt mean R/C gliding is easy.Try aero-tow ..and some air combat in a slope u will soon come to know.
Thanks to Mr. Bradley J Smith,there is a wonderful compilation of R/C soaring.Just click on the link to get the soaring guide which starts from the basics.For the Indian aeromodellers,of course some things will be slightly different,things like local clubs,radio frequencies etc.I will help you out on that.
Once u know how it feels ,i am sure u are hooked for life!!.So u want to fly powered now?.Sure u do !!
Here is a compilation of basic stuff of radio control flying.This i would suggest is important not only for new flyers but also for others.The original was written as "Student Pilot Flight Instruction Manual and Beginners Guide to R/C Flight" by the Palos R/C Club USA and Howard Sullivan.Please go through the entire manual once.
