Source of balsa ??

reinforce the servo mount...else ur balsa mount will get splinter as the time goes..even the lamination of glass fiber cloth will provide the addon to the strength of fuselage...good work john..keep it up...

Hi Harshad.
The mounts are ply.  Laminating with glass fiber cloth wont be needed I think as its a very small plane with 22" WS.
I will take care of this things in my future builds. Thanks for the inputs.

Excellent build johny

Thanks Rai Saheb..

Nice build and excellent finish   

Dear Prabal, Balsa is very easy to cut.  Just use a paper cutting knife available at the local market.... In case you are dealing with hard balsa you may use a saw blade.  I have used the Paper knife most times and it has worked out fine.  To cut out a kit from Balsa Sheets... just make templates of the size required on butter paper and then use it to make your Balsa sheet and cut them to size.

Thanks Iyer sir. Hope it 'll fly good as it looks.
