Yes sir read the posts
.. aileron thickness is 3mm
Any sugesstions for dihedral angle to use...?

Weight of body 250 grams..
Weight of servos 9*3=27 grams
Weight of motor 100 grams
Weight of lipo 300 grams
Weight of esc 100 grams
Weight of landing gear 50 grams
misc weight 50 grams
Total weight 750-800 grams
All values except body weight are approximations...didnt get a single piece of electonics yet...please suggest some combination for electronics for this plane..winspan just under 1 metre

You have not read the BEX build log properly

1. Do NOT use such thin Ailerons. They will flutter. Your Ailerons, Tail feathers incl. rudder, stabs, elevator should be 4 mm reinforced with bamboo skewers
2. The spar should be joined at the dihedral angle before assembling the wing.

I know you are young, and don't want to discourage you, but a bit of care at this stage will save a lot of grief and frustration later. I know, because at your age I would do the same, and suffered :D

Oh.. then I guess I have gone through some other thread....but the autor was BEX...
I glued the top edge to the bottom edge and tried a glide test of just a wing half... glides well...
Does the par need to be joined with a wooden dihedral brace or the same method that was used to make the spar may be applied?

I will measure the coro again and tell whether its 3mm or 4mm :-)

Can use corro joiners, both sides

Actually all the coro used for wing is 4mm and all the coro used for the fuse is 3mm

Ya ulta but what can i do now... i have reinforced the fuse properly enough

Attached the two wings and got a suitable dihedral... used a mix of cyanoacrylate and synthetic rubber adhesives...wing (feels) is as hard as rock... here is a picture

Hereis the picture of the fuse... very light weight...

Making the wheels now... uzing bottle caps and cycle spokes...

Is this a good enough transmitter...does it work well? Is it reliable enough as i plan to put it to use in many of my next models...

5 pages of reviews should answer your question.

By the way... how's my plane sir?
Its still under construction but all the major things ...(fuse wings and tail )are  completed... only waiting for elecronics...  glide test also done but no video taken...

Dear topalle

I don't see your ratios to be correct!!! just have a check with the image i have put.

Its not that the planes other than the recommended ratios do not fly but better to go with the proven design first.

Yes sir it looks like that from back angle i will post another picture that will clear the perspective

Sir you noticed it correctly... the fuse was small(ish)...
Rebuilt the fuse from a bigger sheet of coro
below is the picture of the wings on  the new fuse ...
forgot to mention... even made the saddle last night

Left it for now... busy with college work...no electronics :( will get them after this march after exams... meanwile improving my building techniques... built a corocub wing and fuse... even building a airbus a320... i will not fly this first but just making the plane

@topalle still ur fuse looks smaller ...check the dimensions....
