Cute :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
Nice
Are you using laminated deprton then you need to use a more powerfull setup as the thing is very heavy.
nitesh its only 300g and overall will be max 500g so no weight issue as i had with hal ht2 talking sanjay sir's advice of using less hot glue :giggle: thankyou sanjay sir :hatsoff:
'Fir to Asmaan ko fadh do'

Frame is just 312g and total AUW will be around 410g where my motor will produce 440g of thrust so good 1:0.9 thrust to weight ratio best for slow flyer

I don't think anyone consider it as an interesting build but i love this plane cause it's an old timer ;D
Anyway here are the landing gears i have done today did experiment with alloy,plastic and normal steel wire but this looked and appealed best :)
Some closeups
there are very few pics of the model with newspaper in the ending stage of build( no offence intended). if you have it please post it sir, it will get you more chance of winning
@topalle
if i started with the tracing of plan on foam on 8th and posted final pics on 11th isn't it clear that it would have completed in that time gap only ???
