This was the standard RC glider in India for many many years (from India's Hobby Centre).
Build it. You won't regret it.

Nice!

The Sharma version has the advantage of using a nose mounted Engine/Motor instead of a power pod (the power pod is not shown in the Outer Zone plan)

Well.... the Kaiser Mk II is a bit of a quick model if built as a low winger.  But as a high winger it's a  good trainer.  Further the Sharma Apple Box is a good glider to build for your electric or motor versions.  I have used all these and presently I have one Kaiser Mk I as a trainer and a low winger Kaiser Mk II

In case you haven't tried this already,
Go to Jai Narayan building, ratanada.
Look for Sharma Aero.
The oldest aeromodelling manufacturer in India
And meet some of the nicest guys in this business!

Visited sharma models today just an hour back
wow was the experience
one of the best people i have ever met.
Wow was their workplace
so many beautiful models .
My eyes were glued to them.
They generously gave me 3 glass filled props.
These are very nice props will never look after cheapo plastic ones.
For the first time i saw balsa wood and learnt some properties of it.
Tommorrow they will fly outside of town at 800 hrs
will try my best to catch the action.
PS truely a wonderful place and so are people.
Hatsoff
