there is a cloth/fiber mesh on the sticky side of the tape, it has good strength and does not tear unevenly.
Try coth tape almost the same

Total Mall - its there and you have 1cm up to 2 inch wide double sided tape. But thats for paper-paper surface. Pls. don't try sticking anything else together with it. They used to have the fiber tapes (actually it was a piece some 6 x 6 inches) that are stuck on cricket bats but not any more. I bought all the pieces they had ;-))

You should get it easily on avenue road or some where there nearby.

Won't the ordinary packing tape or cello tape serve good for the aileron hinges in coro?

Actually, for coro the aileron should be initially included in the wing when cutting the coro. Then to create the aileron hinge just remove one side of a flute - slice out one surface of a flute. And there you have the aileron hinge. Even if at an angle this is a good way to make the hinge. Else of course good two inch tape on both sides of the wing and aileron hinge point. Run the tape along the length of the wing and the aileron hinge. With some fiber tape at a couple of points along the length.

The one i had was as strong as quickfix. It was branded "wonder tape".

I have to attach the aileron with the wing by means of tape only..This is not like usual aileron construction..Tats y I'm searching tat..
