HYDRO PLANER.....




Friends and Colleagues..after some tedious works on JSF , MIG 29 model projects, and Ship modeling projects, i got some nice Friendships, of some extra ordinary people, who working on the field of modeling..with Pramod Sir i shared a lots of ideas of making a submarine..and a lots..after a good hard work in Naval Academy, i got one of the ever veterans of Aeromodeling in Kerala, is Mr Vinod and Nikhin..and on their way back, both stayed at my home, as i was some un able to walk freely..their mission to leave me at home safely..as night darkens, i requested them to stay the night and start at early morning..so they agreed..
it was a great night, as i got a lots of tips and instructions from both..as our conversation continues, Nikhin told one thing that " one of the ever expensive hobby is aero modeling"..is it true..

NO..Mr Vinod replied..i returned to my work room, and Nikhin gone to bed..but Mr Vinod asked me for some spare wheels..and i merged in my works..then after about 40 minutes...he was holding a nice looking airplane in his hand...wooosh...

wait for the morn...go and sleep..

next morning was a great morning for us...it was unbelievable, as this aircraft flies like a dream...

he told us..." Today, if you can buy a good mobile phone...then you can make and fly a good airplane in minutes..." it was true words..today a 4 channel radio set is available for RS 2000/-and cost of a micro servo is Rs 160...the radio set..? works well...so a basic need of a modeller is about within 4000 Rs include a LiPoly battery...with charger..

then expense to make this aircraft is ...mere ...150 Rs..include all glue..but performance...awesome...slow to missile...safe landing after landing...easy take offs...repeatedly...if crashed..the motor will loose easily..and protected...loss..?  a mere half sheet of straw board of 3mm...weight..empty with ECM..is 95 Gms...!!!...

most of us spent thousands of Rupees for a craft...but here you can see how simple it is and nice...i named her as the SOLOSKY..as she need not any instructor to teach to fly , as she is far stable even at '0' throttle...and much forgiving...simple..and painted it with my own idea..now i am making a lots of this for Friends..and all they are happy..and now we are finished a pusher to save motors in a hit...its also a big success..flying well...

Roopesh sir,
that really is a very nice looking plane, congrats. Sir please share with us the plans and material/building techniques used, especially for the wing and a closeup shot of the undercarriage and the wing mount, this would really help beginners like me to get initiated with this wonderful hobby

Friends, i do not have any clear idea of the material used. here in my native, this sheet is known as Straw board, fluted board, coro sheet..anyway, this is mainly used to make false ceiling, and advertisement displays. one 8 X 4 sheet in to 2 mm costs only 115 Rs. and 3 mm is 130 Rs only..and can make two planes with one sheet. very weightless and strong..when formed..i am making a second one for my Friend, by this night and will post all details here..its far stable and simple than my Company made trainer...simpler..inexpensive..sheer pleasure...

OK sir! I figured it is same material which we know as Coro or Coroplast. The same material which the SPADs are made of. Its correct name is Corrugated Plastic Sheet. Correct me seniors if I am wrong somewhere Head Scratching.

Please check if it is same material as in the link...
