RC India

Here's my "slowly" with Thermocol wing.( as it is light weight and was available with me). I planned for a lightweight version as I had purchased a micro motor frm rcbazar. Used 5 mm depron to build fuselage.wings and tail is usual 1cm thick Thermocol.
SPECS:
AUW 166 gm. Rest of the details and plan in the pics.
NB: Idea from Roman's slowly)

The motor was mounted at a slight downward angle to compensate the upward thrust. Flies slowly and perfect.

One servo ( for rudder) and receiver were pasted using double side tape on the under side if top layer of fuselage and The servo for elev pasted to bottom plate of fuselage. Similarly ESC pasted on the downside ,lipo above (as seen in the pic). Front end ( both upper and lower area) is covered with a piece of styrofoam plate.

Good try,166grms auw for a  31inch wing span superb...... :thumbsup: :thumbsup: careful with cg ,and landing gear while landing, use minimum throttle after take off u will be fine....all the best

Yes , you are right.landing gear was not proper, broke it .

Enjoying a Sunday with my slowly. This time no on board camera mounted. http://youtu.be/yPXDin0zaRw

I purposefully kept it low to enjoy the slow pace.

Seem a bit tail heavy....glad u having fun with slowly

Yes Roman, it was balanced with the camera in front. I removed it before this video, to increase the flight time. Forgot to recalibrate 😁😅

how'd you do it.... its awsome..... no quick flight and land real fast... just gliding and flying steadily........ great job

Now with depron wing and on board camera. AUW= 160 gms. Wingspan 61 cm. Perfectly balanced.

From where you got Depron ?

RCBazaar

video looks like a slomo.  love the results

My efforts to keep it in low altitude has made those peaks and troughs in its flying path😁😀😛

Ok sure. Saved your number. Thank you so much ! But where exactly in TVM is your shop? And at what price you sell? How thick? Laminated? What other products you have ? Any online link?

Hi I don't own a shop..and I don't sell it...5mm Depron is available at Trivandrum in a shop I can provide you the location phone number etc etc...its rs300 for 8x4 feet sheet

Ok thanks , but why can't the address be made public?(so that everyone in this forum is benefitted) Is it due to Limited stock?And do they sell any RC accessories other than depron?

Its a sign board shop ... And supply is regular ....will give the full details in public tomorrow

That's a great news! Thanks for the info. My friends too were asking me whether they could get depron in Kerala.Do you know any shops near cochin? And one more doubt, do you know whether they courier the item from TVM?

👍👍Thank you

Slowly fully depron version. Now it's more cute. Iyer sir, any comments on my "art" :giggle:?

It is indeed cute. Give it two large ears, it'll look cute as goofy ;)

Hahaha... 😄😄😄 Sure! That would be my flying pet !😝😝😇😇

How did you give curve and slope to the wing?

First, I Hotwire thermocol to aero foil, then cover the whole wing tightly with food wrap (very thin plastic) , then make a linear cut at the bottom, paste  the cut edges of sheet with Sellotape , then hot glue a (linear ) triangular piece of thermocol/depron in the groove (the cut area) , which would curve the ends of the wing.
