I have been experimenting with rocket boost gliders for the past few weeks. I have a rather unorthodox design, but I have been able to successfully scale it from C-class motors up through F class. I am sure I can go quite further with the design, but random glide is no longer an option. As such, I am looking to get into R/C. I realize this is quite a leap, but all I am really looking to achieve (for now) is to make sure the rocket/plane lands somewhere within the launch field.
Does anyone have any pointers for someone just getting into R/C, but for someone who is looking to dive into a scratch-built experimental build?
I am thinking about getting the Spektrum DX6i w/ micro servos kit, and then finding a foamie glider kit suitable for the micro servos to learn some of the flight basics. Clearly I will need larger servos for my gliders, but I think I will only need two of them.
