Somehow in a discussion between Sundaram Sir & Girish Sarwal, it came to pass that I have to build a model for the sweepstakes, starting today, and finish by dusk tomorrow :o :o :o
So, I do need an Avispad - it's my bread and butter model ;D. My last one was slaughtered by a merciless lady learner driver while I was landing :violent: :violent:
Thats painful to hear sir about your previous avispad...
See Sandy sir, I told ya...
While sir flies electric mostly now, he himself is 90-10 glow fuel, all you need is a hot glow plug...
Sanjay sir, I am sure with all that heat, the butter is melting fast, greasing your rich "bread and butter" breakfast...;)
All the best...
Utkarsh, the best cure for the pain is build another ;D ;D That's the beauty of spads :D
Girish-bhai....I hope with this frenetic building some of the butter around my waist will melt :rofl:
Fuse cut out, firewall ready. I use blind nuts, as nothing pokes out from the inside - in a crash the protruding part of the screw can puncture the Lipo.
Doublers put in fuse, L/G pad fitted
Fuse nearly complete now. On to the wing!
Wing. Spar is wood moulding strip 1" X 1/4"
Sanjay Sir too Good. The speed with which you are going no one can catch up. All scratch build and multiplied by 5 times every time this time for sure one price you are taking. {:)} {:)} {:)} :hatsoff:
Thanks Sandy >:D >:D
Aileron Servo fitment made
Wing folded over. As soon as I get some decent Corro, I'll make a new wing. This is horrible!
Some vinyl work on the fuse. Tail feathers fitted
{:)} {:)}
Very nice sir... Ek baar commitment kardi to main fir khud ki bhi nahin sunta...:D:D
When are we meeting for this breakfast? Tomorrow morning?
Girish...go back to sleep. You're confusing me :D
@Girish Sanjay Sir is not 90:10 Glow fuel he is full 100% Nitro-methane. Explosive. ;D

That was bad sir......!!
Yet another - another Avispad :)
True Manoj. I seem to get through a lot of them :rofl:
Fuse continues
Fuse complete with the LG installed
I just hated the wing. The corro was mushy, and had gone all dented
So, making a new wing. I only had 3.5 mm corro, heavy, but....what to do? ;D
Wing complete ;D
Ready for maiden. 2 days for the build (including 2 wings) as committed ;D ;D
Awesome sir :bow: :bow:. Such a pretty model. {:)} {:)}
Sir, I'd a query regarding what you've used for making the landing gear. It seems to be aluminium....?
Also, is it not possible to achieve such accuracy, if in the upper surface of the wing the flutes are in the direction of the spar. Is it necessary to keep the direction of flutes perpendicular to spar...?
:hatsoff:
Thank you Utkarsh
Yes, it is Aluminium. Avaiable from RCD, RCB & HK for Rs 200
If you put the flutes lengthwise, the corro will flatten on the spar. So instead of an aerofoil, you will get a triangle
Thank you sir.
I got it. Yes, it would result in a triangle. Actually, I was having only 1 sheet of coro(6ft X 2ft). The flutes are in 6 ft direction. So, I thought there must be some way of using it because its tough to source coroplast here in Allahabad. No problem I would try to get a new sheet of coro that to yellow in colour. I need it for my Piper Cub.
:hatsoff:
You could try to put a 2" wide padding between the spar and wing skin, with the flutes in the chord direction. May work

O angel of mercy ,next time please let it be a tender hearted demise by a merciful gentleman.Let him guide the flying machine to the light of your eternal love and peace. Cause then the pain will be so much lesser .
Amen

Thank you sir. Again a superb idea. Would implement it ASAP.
:hatsoff:
SC - the prayer is for no demise :D
Put some vinyl sheeting on the wing
@ Mr. Sanjay
Amen
m/s SC, look liked your Amen was heard by He Who Matters ;) ;D
Had a successful maiden
