Dear Abhishek,

Lovely build for the first model.  Hope and pray that it flies well.

Well as usual I have a few observations and my two bit of advice on your model.
1.   You say you have used normal thermocol.... well in my understanding it is not strong enough to take the load of flying and also a  heavy landing or more.  You may like to cover it with some paper maybe use kite paper for low weight or use butter paper to cover the entire surface.  You may see my thread on the Kaiser  to understand how it is done.
2.   Do not be in a hurry to take it to the air.  If you have someone to help you do that it will be good.
3.   Do take adequate safety precautions before launching it... like a range check and a control check.
