Since a long time i've been gathering information to design a R/C aircraft and yeah after a lot of effort its ready. For beginners it is better for an ARF or RTF version to begin with because if u don't know to fly even if you build a aircraft with good flying characteristics you are going to crash it some how and start building all again. Generally people lose their interest in the hobby due to this, as they work hard to complete the model an at last just goes into the bin, using simulators is an other option but flying in simulators is far different from flying a real R/C aircraft.
The first thing to do to get started with this hobby is to surf through a lot of forums ,then start learning the basics of the parts involved like Kv of the motor, what does mAH of a battery specify, the C rating of a battery, etc., then get familiar with the R/C shops around you or if you prefer online shop's browse the net ( HobbyKing is one of the best international shop i have seen).Then u can go for building a plane or buying a ARF or RTF.
One more most important thing is the selection of the radio, if you are going to really stick to the hobby go for a branded radio.The difference between a branded and cheap one i'll cover it in a later post.
Ok, then i'll get started with my build though it dosen't look that good it fly's well:-
