Turned a non-powered toy foam glider (cost Rs 400 for the glider) into an RC glider that flies like a much smaller plane!  All the parts are listed in the Youtube description.  She's not pretty but after I zip tie the wires and maybe add some paint or colored tape, she'll look nicer.

I only had cardboard available so the cardboard box became ailerons, rudder, and elevator!

I brought it with me from a trip abroad.  I gave a new one to Vineet of Hobbysea, maybe he still has it.  They're real soft, eps foam, and break very easy.
Send PM if you need one.

Could you please post a picture of the Original Glider and expected price, if you have any to sell /spare? If you are willing to let them go for Rs.400 or thereabouts, I'm game.
Growing old is mandatory, growing up is optional!
