Well im not selling anything but have a some info that I accidentaly stumbled upon during my foamie build.
For all those looking for fibre tape (which is not easily available) a very simple and cheap solution is to use fiber tape which is used on cricket bats.its very light, very strong and has great adheshion.also its very easily available at almost any sport shop.its very cheap as well.20 bucks for a 12x6 inches sheet.aeromodeller's benifiting from cricket popularity in india  Grin
I hope this info is helpfull for all.posting a pic of what I bought.
Admin I know this should have been posted under 'tips and tricks' n apologise for the same,but this 'sale' area has much larger and frequent audiance so I posted it here for maximum reach of this info.

Nice, what is this called in the sports shops? I saw fiber tape with rcbazaar. If this is cheap, makes sense and I dont need much.

I hope its the former, for the air in Ludhiana still has the aroma of desi ghee, despite the industrialization, and I love it that way...

Back to the fiber tape, I'm planning to visit a sport shop today and get one...Guess which sport shop....Lodhi sports, from the Lodhis of Ludhiana Wink
