Don't have money to spend on ARF planes, so I made this one, borrowed Lipo & TX/RX from my friends, and it flies pretty well, except that there is no landing gear and it crashed.

I managed to buy 4 HK15178 Analog Servo 10g / 1.4kg / 0.09s at the price of $1.89 per piece from Hobbyking which took over a month for shipping and an used 1400 kv brushless motor from a friend.

I cut the Thermocol using a hand saw and then sand it to my desired form with a sand paper, thermocol breaks easily, but if you cover them with cello tape, it became enforced and hard to break. Those who are low on budget should try this method.

I think I manage to get the CG right , first time flying on first plane which you build it your self is a lot of fun and add a lot of thrills.


had a problem with the camera so the vid was short..

very nice build,that is really inspiring  

thank you harsha..

Righto, SunLikeStar, we might start using Bamboo soon as we have so much of it. :-)))) hehe

Mizoram rocks!!!

thank you all.. Zonun, maybe its about time we start using bamboos..

I am delighted to see the team from Aizawl / Mizoram making rapid strides and gaining good ground in this forum. You guys are an inspiration for the entire North East. Well done!

If I can help you all in any way, don't hesitate to ask...................

P.s. I have used bamboo to reinforce the wings of coro gliders. It works.
