Joining Radio Control Club

(A typical example of Radio Control Flying Club where all Modeler gathering for the sake of their hobby)

Here I can't emphasis more on how important it is for you to join any modeling club near you, moreover if you choose flying radio control model. Here at the club you can try to find a 'Guru' that can teach you and properly check and trim your model, he probably can save you from destroying your first precious model that you bought from your own hard earn cash on your first flight.

I have read in a flying radio control magazine of how one guy a columnist blame on the internet on why less and less youth interested in flying radio control model. They are more interested in playing online computer games and hours of surfing on the internet.

There is no doubt he might be right about it. But nowadays internet it self is a medium for modeler to interact with each other. In earlier times when internet was non-existent, face to face meeting was the only way the enthusiasts could contact each other. Even phone or snail mail was too clumsy to interact effectively. But the enthusiasts have always traveled long distances for the sake of their hobby just to meet one another. This is the indulgence in the hobby. But, the advent of internet has virtually reduced the world, your “arm’s length away” being just “a-click-of-your-mouse-away”. Real life meeting is not at all required, but still one can connect to another radio control hobby enthusiast from another end of the world.

Online groups can be of help to connect and to organize more extensive events, and to know about the various hobby related activities taking place. Nowadays you can buy any hobby related thing just through you computer!.

Time is the most important factor when considering any hobby. A hobby is an activity that has grown more than just a “wish to try” activity, and you yearn to do it day in and day out. One might not always find the time, but the passion for the activity is what makes it worthwhile. If the thought of playing with remote controlled toys piques your interest, then it means you possibly have a flair for radio control models and you should give a try.
