Some construction pics

Plan used is airfoil 50" span . As per inventor of this design plane with 50" is more stable.

5 mm and 10 mm used for construction, no hot wire cutter, used paper/ thermocol cutter.

Small piece of plywood used for motor mount, mounted aluminium c type tube.  This aluminium tube can be found easily in any hardware store. @ 8/- per meter
Glued with Araldite Klear 5 min epoxy.

Reinforced stick with combining two tubes together.

Small aluminium rods from cloth hanger , used for holding wing .

Glued fuse to foam by hot glue gun. Used hot glue gun here as it's very quick and quite capable   

I don't had landing wheels so temporary  plastic case of gold rings (jewelry)

Following this thread with a lot of interest!

Dead weight added before median to get correct CG.
Thanks to Prady sir without him it was not possible to calculate correct CG
Plane was too tail heavy, so added 8 AA cells approx 200-300 grm in front of plane, this cause performance of the plane but defiantly help to fly properly.

Complete plane 

First and Median flight 

Thanks to Amit (SunLikeStar) for first throw and  Prady sir for your SAFE hands.

I am not flying it , I'm still practicing on simulator  , this is magic of Prady sir we are flying at Baner , Pune on Sat/ Sundays .

Happy landing 

Temporary landing gear show there weakness , but was strong enough to save lipo mounted at the bottom   

This was amazing experience to see my scratch build flying so nicely in first attempt.

ohh.. yaa it also could glide well with throttle off.

I was totally impressed with how well it glides. Very nice build log Vinayak

Thank you augustinev

  ...vinayak bhai, i do not know about amit ...but if you see my RC Skills, i am still a beginner ...thanks to praddy, amar and others at the field i am just about beginning to get the aircraft in one piece down of late...

One thing I notice and would like to share/ suggest all beginners like me

Please visit your nearest field and senior RC flying members before you start with your new plane.

I have made mistake with my first scratch build BlueBaby 24" I tried it myself and never succeed. Every time tried to get into air it crashed on nose.

Without senior members like Pradi Sir , Amar Sir , Mohan Sir and Amit It was not possible to get my new bird to air.

Amazing!!!!! so many ideas.......made out of easily available material.......grt!!!

Thanks Ashish.
As this plane was a quick build (almost built in couple of days) instead of waiting for exact build material and delay test flight I decided to go with things available with me (this specially applies for landing gear)
Sooner I'll be changing this with actual lighter foam wheels.
