The Magpie Glider, newest addition and selling like hot cakes! This one is a beautiful flyer.

Recieved my package today. This is my first aeromodelling related courier

The packing was really good The tail of the mig 21 broke but i can fix it easily. Everything else was safe and sound. Thanks VC

Attaching pics of the packing -

Wow!! I see QuickFix in the last pic. This used to be the 'Balsa Cement' in the NCC workshop where I learnt Chuck gliders.

VC, where did you find them ? Is the pack new ? as I remember the Carton used to be orange in color!! That was ealy 90's I guess!!

All the best for the build Rajath!

Thanks Ujjwaana

Rajath, thank you so much for the positive rating.

I am trying to supply ready to build kits which contain Quickfix and Sandpaper. The Plasticene is causing problems as it is not available here.

Thanks once again for your support.

Chintan, your consignment of 10 Gliders left today. PM sent with details.

Majraj, your consignment of 26 Gliders left today. PM sent with details.

Thanks for your support.

Plasticene serves the same purpose as clay right? Nose weight? Or is it for something else?  

Plasticene is for the nose weight only. You should be able to source that in Bangalore easily.

Completed models with plasticene in place.

The first picture is of the Magpie. Awesome glide characteristics. Perhaps, the best flyer.

The second picture is of the Zephyr 2 which has an unusual empennage with a side mounted tail fin. The original Zephyr has a standard centre mounted vertical fin. Both fly equally well.

Will post a video soon.

VC you tempt me with those images. Alas i wont be able to start woek on them till next week as i have tests
You were right about the quality of mig and hunter kits being better.

I use kids clay for weight - red, yelloy,blue and green . Bought one for Rs.18 some time back. Got a ship, tree and flower clay shape maker FREE!!! Burst out laughting when i found it inside!

Rajath, I would like to buy 5 packs of the clay URGENTLY. can you arrange it for me if I pay you in advance? Please let me know.

Sure VC. I have sent a mail. Check and let me know

thanks Rajath... ok.. I change my order to 'all' once again

Can you please use ship all of them for me? Also please let me know if you could use BlueDart...

Hi VC, do u still have the Magpie Glider, if yes i would like to order 1.

Respected VC,

Would you please link the thread of your earlier post to sand and adjust of the glider parts and fixing with ribbon.

Is your students sand the wing  with sandpaper by hand support? I use Hard back support behind sandpaper to avoid oversanding. Diamond file sets works well. As, my Cam is not at present with me,  cannot post just right now the photographs.

Friends, I got two glider as gifts from VC and a lot thanks to VC.
But SAD, as he has not give his mailing address so that at least I can send greetings card to HIM.

Please PM me your mailing address Vikramaditya-Da.

Let's not discuss gifts in public. Recently, I have received a a gift that will remain a treasured possession as long as I live. However, I can't disclose any details right now as I wouldn't want this person to be swamped by "Please Sir, I also want one" requests. It can become quite embarrassing. Kalyan, in future, please refer to me simply as VC. Epithets such as 'Respected' are best reserved for the stalwarts on this forum who really deserve it.

I can't seem to find the thread about sanding and finishing, please check with RajathV8. I think he was the one who had posted a detailed build log of one of the gliders that he bought from me.

You may sand using free hand techniques, but using a Sanding Block (I use Hard back support behind sandpaper to avoid over sanding) is a much better idea.

All the best!

i want to purchase hunter gliders, how to go about it

Dear Santhosh, PM sent.

VC sir regarding the nose weight ( i missed the last posts  ) you can get a similar clay in the glass shop, the clay is used for windows , we call it " LAMBI" in marathi... its oily and doesnot dry but is effective as weight option as it is heavy compared to size....

Dear Santhosh,

Your consignment (30 pcs Magpie / Follow Me and 30 pcs Millennium) left today through Professional Couriers. I will be able to give you the Consignment Number by tomorrow evening. I have also included a free Hunter kit and some accessories for you. Hope they all reach safe and sound.
