Thanks Anwar! Angel guides like you are a must for the success of the community! My RC toddler friends and Me were planning to hunt for scratch build materials like foamies etc in the Bangalore city! now we can use the week end in plan building!

What is really important is for people to come back and report on locations and availability of such items. I hope someone from Bangalore investigates the above outlet (or other sources of the same item), and report the findings here.
Scratch building is a wonderful way to make this hobby affordable.
Hi Anwar, Can you please post a link where an RC plane is built using Lexan sheet? I tried googling but no use :-[
Sorry for my stupid quesion above, after googling a lot came to know its used for windows of a plane. :giggle: I had thought the whole plane was built using it.

I also learnt that car bodies are built using them.

Yes sir
Thanks Mr Ashta. We went for the hunt on the SJP road, but could not find any open shops as it was already a bit late (8 PM). Could you please suggest any shop you bought from (bill/credit card statement may help :D )
We even went to Iyengar Road (road oppsite to road on which National market is located), And there were few Plywood/Veneer shops which looked promising, but again closed for the day:D
wd go to Alpha Traders on Monday and keep the thread updated.
Bump!
SOS Local Seniors!!
Mr Prashat (who flies at Jakkur), I heard even you procured EPP locally. Please help.
dear ujwanna,
1. To my best knowledge, EPP is not available in India/ bangalore.
2. But prashant had Depron sheets many sizes who had bought bulk for the conveneince of all of us.
3. For Lexan sheets, i got it from SJP road. Do not remember the shop but it is displayed outside many shops and you are unlikely to miss it if shops are open.
if u need many help call me 9448073127, since u are in bangalore
While you guys are at buying the Polycarbonate sheets, please check what paints stick to them. Will help me.

Got two 5mm thick sheets 180mmx180mm for 700. Pretty expensive!
Hey what is this lexan sheets? is it any kind of frp like material..
I bought Frp for :Rs: 200 for a sheet of 2mm think and 450x300mm here.. very stiff and comparatively less weight..
@arun, Lexan is the brand name for polycarbonate produced by SABIC innovative plastics, formerly known as GE plastics. Pls refer to the above replies ;D
Ohh Sorry.. I didn't noticed the above posts.. :(
Is it stiff enough to use in your quad? actually i was in a plan to order some CF sheets 2mm from HK, for my orni..
I am coming to banglore on thursday.. Will these avail in 2mm think.? Or go for Cf itself? ???
Astha Sir,
