Practice, and only Practice will make you perfect
Dear All
you need to post youtube videos a shown in the image below, basically if you notice url within Square brackets in the beginning and slash url at the end isn't required and you need to lose http or https, instead use www. In fact correct to post'em is also simpler and easier

easier way is keep posting and i keep cleaning them up, then that will entail the delay of me noticing it

Wow! Thanks.
Was wondering why my posts often have your edits.
Will try one now as suggested.
Can't have Mod chasing bad links!

Edit:
The problem is that now i can neither see the video nor the link!
(Videos not visible on iPad)
Going to the laptop now.

I think the India Hobby Centre one was the Yellow Bird, which was a catapult launch

All old timers in India remember the Yellow Bird.
Too expensive at IHC for youngsters like me to buy.
Used to drool at the NCC guys (Kalsi etc) who had Yellow Birds,
and looong (1 meter) 1/4th inch rubber for catapult.

Still worth emulating. Thank you Alan J Webber  Hats Off

Plans cost GBP 12.50!

Tip launching put high stress on airframe.
Condition after 20 launches.
Pivot detached from boom at about 20ft height. Then straight into the ground at full speed.
Wing balsa broke, not the joint!

Yes, I did hear it, like a small rocket and on that note,how about launching it with one of those Diwali rockets which dont burst in the end? A good plane to measure brawn amongst people(thought of using men and boys,but people it is Grin ) at field.

After wing repair,
Melted solder for nose weight.
It weighed only 11 gms instead of 16 gms due to losing the flux.
Redid the nose with the weight inside.

@rastsaurabh
Thanks for bumping this thread.
Don't know if you are old enough to have heard of Abbey Road.
Between 'Golden slumbers' and 'You never give me your number',
There's a line
'Boy, you've got to carry that weight, carry that weight, a long time'
Reference to context in next post!
(Hope some of the oldies, aka seniors, see this)

Hi everyone,
About 3 weeks back INDORE TLG1 just exploded on hitting the ground in a full speed dive.
Since then repaired/glassed front fuselage.
Weight has gone up from 44 to 51gms. Loading has gone up from 3.1 oz/sqft to 3.6!
This 15% increase has reduced still air time from 35secs to 25 secs.

Chuck glider enthusiasts may be interested to see the attitude of the model in the launch/climb phase.
Here are 12 stop action grabs from this Sunday's (20/4) video (courtesy our videographer Aunt)
