This is awesome! Where did you get the carabiners in sadar? Unless you've already applied for the patent, can I do the same with my models. Would love to fit mine with wings and hang them. With some simple changes, an easy way of checking roll balance of the aircraft...

Think the place in Sadar is called 12 tutti (not sure if its spelled that way) but it definitely sounds like that. Lots of shops there. Worth the visit. Park your car at New Delhi Railway Station.

VC - hang the prop planes tail up / prop down.

that way the dust wont settle on/in the Brushless motor / engine carbs

Any reinforcements inside ?  I see at least one big plane on the top right.

sir i feel that pvs pipes tend to occupy more space i like the
one vc sir have
stuck close to the wall
and those are excellent even when placed close to the stairs
as pvc foundation cannot be placed close to the stairs.
Title: Re: Storage Ideas
Post by: saahil on October 18, 2012, 11:22:01 PM
i doubt about the reinforcements as the planes are real light so they dont put that much of load on pipes.
Title: Re: Storage Ideas
Post by: Vasudev on October 18, 2012, 11:30:25 PM
No actually i did not reinforce it these are meant for small Electric Planes which weighs below 1.2 Kg
as saahil posted
actually you can go for metal pipes welded for bigger planes
the right corner is the PA Bandit it is 1.4wingspan and weighs less than 1.3kg
yea i saw the Vc sir option it was really good
chk this out for bigger planes

sir is this your collection
if yes then  :bow: :bow: :bow:
really awesome.
and coming back to square one.
this is a very good option if you have too many planes as all the planes are kept only on a single wall.
vs
vc sir where planes are kept through out the walls.

the only drawback with vc design is that planes are more likely to be touched by any object as they are scattered all over.

where as in ur case the draw back is they come out of the wall hence obstruction the frontal space.

but we have to compromise as the each option has its own advantages and dis advantages.
