    Do you still stock these models.

ankitbaid

hi VC bhaiya....
is that EURUS available...??

VC

Eurus not available. Magpie is available and it is a better model than the Eurus.

I believe these gliders need some experience and hardwork like sanding for airfoil, glue etc to get them airborne. I am a complete newbie but my reading indicates that there could be tens (if not hundreds) other reasons why a completed glider does not fly as imagined.
If (repeat If) you too are a newbie like me and this is your first glider, you may face some disappointment during the contest.

Thanks for you help!
VC: Please reply soon so that i can buy a glider from you!

Hey dont worry about it being complicated. Once completed you will find it exremely easy to build , fix and trim. Go through my build log for info - I can help you if you need any.

Thanx rajat,

The more I read, more apprehensive I am getting :headscratch:. Afterall, my son has a great image about me  ;D and I dont want to spoil it. I need to get it right the very first time. It was very heartning to hear your words.

Dear Vishwas,

"The more I read, more apprehensive I am getting" - Just don't worry! Even if you just join the pieces, add half the supplied plasticene weight to the nose and launch her- she will fly! Just stop reading and DO IT! Forget about trimming, sanding, aerofoil shapes and other jargon. Follow your heart, for once, it shows you the way............

If you need any assistance from me, do call (you have my number).

Cheers!

VC is right. You will learn on the job :D

QuoteYour gliders were sent out through DTDC, first thing in the morning. You can use any big rubber band and a wooden dowel (or two pencils tightly cello taped together) to make a catapult. You don't need to visit a LHS for it.

Thanx VC.... Please provide tracking no. by PM.

Dear VC,

Received the parcel today. 2 magpies and one Millenium. It was so well packed that it was almost impenetrable. I am posting the photos of the package. As you can see, fuse of one of the Magpie is broken. But this is a small issue and I can fix it. Dihedrals are missing from both the magpies. Please help to resolve this issue.

Regards

Vishwas

REst of the photos.....
