Hello sir ,
Your builds are amazing.
This combination of coro and balsa makes planes cheap and look more colorful.....

This is a request ...
Can you please put light on how to convert these models plans available in balsa into coro.....?
And how to check CG, Power plant, tips ,tricks, etc...

Thank you Pranav

I think that will need a separate series of posts!

If there is enough interest, I certainly will do it

Yes sir ....
Waiting eagerly.. 

Awesome job. Correx is such an awesome material for modelling. Had many models built from this marvellous material. Fantastic project. Well done!

Thank you Dominic. Still quite a long way to go before she's in the air

coro sheet bends after few flights , i would be good if you would have done the whole fuse with balsa , this looks awesome by the way.

Thank you for that observation Vineet

I've built over 40 Corro Models, and never had a sheet bend. If you have had that issue something is wrong with your construction technique. Suggest you take a look here : http://www.rcindia.org/rc-people/builds-i-have-posted-on-rci/

This corro model has done over 350 sorties; nope, no corro bending after a few flights

Had been busy, got some build time in last night and this morning

Top Wing

Top Wing complete

You have some great skills, sanjay sir.
Never thought of those small wood at wing tip and that semicircle at the center of the wing.

Thanks Manoj. The semi-circular part is actually part of the design  . Maybe so the Pilot can come out without banging his head on the wing? 

 

With your increasing builds & usage of Corro; Govt. should now introduce Luxury tax on Coroplast.
