Hello people! here i present my next build after the cessna 182. I call it 'LAKSHYA'. It is a rocket shaped aircraft which takes off vertically and can hover and can land vertically. It flies like a regular aircraft when made horizontal.
Construction strategy:
1.all body made of 6mm thick bio foam.
2. All parts cut by hand and stuck with hot glue.
3. To add to the structural strength, I have wrapped transparent,one side sticky plastic film on all the parts. this prevents the model from breaking into pieces if it crashes.
4. Added carbon fibre rods as the legs of the model.
Electronics:
9g servos-3 nos. : 2 for elevon function & 1 for rudder, Motor: 2200KV, prop: 6", esc: 30amp
PLEASE NOTE: I built this plane in one whole night. I didn't sleep at all! Started with the construction on 22nd March at 10pm and completed it at 7 am. Test flight 8 am.
Check out the pics.

dear Aditya,
I appreciate your speed of consruction.Waiting to see the test flight.

show time!
hi people! check out the maiden flight.
NOTE: Since this being the first flight, we did not take it off vertically as none of us are skilled to hover. The plane took off very well and was very stable. Plus, it did a perfect roll twice. but after the roll was completed, one of the fins broke off mid-air and the plane crashed. :(
Thanks to the transparent coating, the damage is repairable.
Okay...lets see the flight now!

the nose was bent and fin was apart from the fuse and Prop broke. Other that that, No damage :D all electronic parts were safe!
Awesome job done! Paint her up for better visibility and let's see her fly again. {:)} {:)} {:)}
cool! now all you gotta do is load it with explosives, and present it to the army as a "long range tactical ballistic missile" :P
good build btw! :D
