lets make this thread only for are scratch built slow pace slow flying airplanes and lets see who got the slowest slow flyers .please note this is not a competition its just for fun and to get to know all the Slow pace flying pilots better so lets add some rules for some more fun
ok so the plane should be only a slow flyer(speed of a slowstick type plane or slower better)
-plane can be micro as well, but must have a brushless outrunner motor only (as thread not exactly for micro planes basicly its for foames)
-plane should be scratch built,from plans,own design,someone elses no problem but built by you
-plane should be built by you only no one else ,no links to someone else's build please
-plane should be a sucessfully flown plane by you with pics and videos being a must
-please post plans if u have or links to it to help others build
-plane should have brushless outrunner motors only
-plane which can fly around small ground or yard would be better,and as we know the bigger the slower so lets make wing span upto like 30inch and as not all of us have big grounds close by are homes lets make wing span 30inch this should be will be fine i think
- plane should be built of any type of foam,carbon,balsa airplane or anything easily available
-can be any type of slow flyer any shape like nutball..etc but fly like a decent slow flyer type airplane with brushless motor
-you can post links to planes you have built in the past but as per above rules
-you can give details of electronics if needed
-remember video is a must
if rules fine with every one in the forum lets go ahead and start showing off those slow beautiful planes
please let me have the honors to start if you guys dont mind here are the links to my builds

Hi Roman,
May I know the reason why you are not considering Brushed motors?

Hi Roman,
May I know the reason why you are not considering Brushed motors?
hey meet2ami actually dont want the thread to get into micro flyer i mention micro plane with brushless because some of us use 5 and 10 gram motor
Hi Guys,
Just a small contribution from me a scratch built - blue styrofoam(DOW) Lancaster 71" with 2812 motors
have used Araldite Clear and Fevicol SH mainly. The plane is totally covered with brown packing tape and painted with Acyralic paints, 80% completed...
here is a 2011 model. hope its not too boring..

nice build but
-is this plane sucessfully flown plane by you with pics and videos being a must
-remember video is a must
-does this plane which fly around small ground or yard, is the wing span upto like 30inch
-is the plane a slow flyer(speed of a slowstick type plane or slower better)
its better to post your build after taking a video and pics and completing it so you know it is a sucessfull design and others can refer to it
ok guys i think ,
-its better to post after taking a video and pics and posting everything together after its a sucess as per the rules or make another thread if everything and if everthing as per the rules you can post the link to your thread here ,like i did
-please try and mention detail of the plane like wing span,cord,lenght,auw...etc at the start of your post so when others see we all get an idea of how big its is instead of digging into the thread to find details i will do the same
-please read the rules before posting
thank you slow flyer pilots

astha sir i like your lite builds
Hi Mr Ashta/Romanxdsouza, read you comments as regards my posting kindly if possible delete my post will repost at a later date with all relevant details in relevant thread after testing with video etc etc ...thank you
micro pilots please have a look at post#1 here http://www.rcindia.org/electric-planes/successfully-flown-micro-airplane-thread-only/msg154372/#msg154372
Hi,
Built fri/sat, flown this sunday.
24" span, 6" chord, 260 gms with 350 mah 2s.

Later put 1000 mah 3s as nose wt reqd. Now 310 gms.
Can draw up plan if anyone interested.
KK iyer,

wll be nice if you can share the plans.
will it be a good build using coro.
sharath
Not accepting videos of even under 20 secs.

kk iyer
excellent built great ,any links to your building project u can post the link in this thread example post #5(copy paste the url), please post a video of it flying check out post #1
here is one of my old build:

Also Have converted Multiplex FOX to brushless...but done have any thread or video!!!
very nice ash this might have been a nice slow bird in no wind conditions,this thread will help us get all the slow flyers pilot and builders in one thread so we could help :help: :help: each other out if need be. let see how many of us actually put hard work :giggle: :giggle: :giggle: in building and flying rather than just buying a RTF or ARF which i have never braught
Bipe first flight (18 sec clip)

{:)} nice build kk sir ,i think you can still slow it down more. i like the suspenders you are wearing in the video dont see much of it now days
Slower now?
The sound is not of the motor. It's the pitter patter of rain on the umbrella!

Superb job KK...how does it fly??
here is my biplane another good slowflyer with 4chn

Very Nice Roman... what did you use as paint??
Deepak
red tape
yup red tape bordered it with a permanent sharpie
Thanks..!!
nice build did u build this plane in the video :headscratch:. no hard feelings but dont want to clog this thread with links to someone elses build thats why if its your build you can mention it and leave it here :thumbsup:, basicly want this thread to be for us who have had fun building from scratch by puting in there time and hardwork to get it lite and flying . if you have not built this plane you can have a look at post#1 and maybe make another thread for this baby ...thanks deepak
moved... Cheers!!
Deepak
any more slow flyer builder

Dear Nakul,
Where did you buy the Blue Foam... can you please tell me.... Would love to buy some myself.
here is my Slowly (http://www.rcindia.org/electric-planes/slowly/) ;D
great work vinayakR superb.....check out some more slow flyers here in reply #1 http://www.rcindia.org/electric-planes/show-off-your-scratch-built-slow-pace-slow-flying-airplane-only-(with-rules)here/ (http://www.rcindia.org/electric-planes/show-off-your-scratch-built-slow-pace-slow-flying-airplane-only-(with-rules)here/)
nice build yash10896 please read post one awaiting videos
it would be really nice if rc india had a seperate heading for micro and slow flyers in the rc models- electric plane section so it would be easy for one who wants to get into indoor and slowflying

my scratch built plane. don't know slow flying or fast :headscratch: :headscratch: :headscratch:
please read post 1 .....thankyou nice build.a reminder to all this thread is only for sucessfully flown airplanes not forgetting with videos
Mr. Gunnu please post this in 'Post your plane pics' thread.
ok @nitesh sir
this is not scratch built, but a fun to fly micro flyer. I'm posting to inspire imagination and try anything

Nice sir leabres , did you build this or is it RTV , reason being this thread is only for scratch built details in post#1
not scratch built but the idea is you don't have to make it the typical plane shape, the idea is to show it cane be any shape as long as it flies

Great build sir, i did not know that you built this i thaught it was a RTF, as this thread is not for RTF
okay, here's my scratch build slow flyer

Wow now thats amazing, sir can you move the iron man to another thread seperately ,i hope you still have the modify option in the posts
tried to move Iron Man it to another thread but unable to do so, maybe moderator can.
