Sir, I was one of them...My name is Anirudh Sharma and as you suggested i have joined this site, and i should say that this is a great site, i saw many forums in the beginners section, many of the were not that difficult to make but the problem lies in availability and the expenses. I am serious about this and have planned to make some models in my summer vacation.....anyway i made 2 gliders from that sunpack(i am not sure about the spelling) and the gamari fuselage, i used feviquick as superglue and fevicol decorative adhesive. One of them did fly well when force is applied, it takes a loop in the air and then beautifully glide to some distance (around 20-30 mtrs),the other one used to dip on the ground everytime i launched it, then i reduced the weight on the nose but it did not glide well. But i really enjoyed making all this and lastly THANK YOU SIR FOR THE GREAT WORKSHOP YOU TOOK IN OUR SCHOOL..:-)

Brownie, the School Mascot and Inspector General of Gliders, checks out the students efforts. He 'tasted' one of the Coro Gliders and chewed on his approval! :giggle:

The workshop started with the students flying some ready made Depron gliders to know what they were aiming for and then they started cutting out the plates according to the measurements given. These young people had NEVER experienced anything remotely associated with Aeromodelling, so I thought they should start with the very basics.

At the end of the first day, they had assembled the depron giders and we let them rest in the Staff Room for the night. The next day the Coro Construction started. Then we had to fly them and see what we had created.

Hey MJA,

Your thread is awsome and really helpfull. In each class, teachers display 100 and a few can take upto 80-95. But that doesnot matter. Being the students remaining same, more materials, more study and more information / inputs. Please enrich our wiki too simultaniously.

And, VC, Good display of our forum and RCBazaar too. :hatsoff:


Title: Re: Faculty High School Guwahati
Post by: VC on June 23, 2012, 10:41:50 AM
Thanks Rcpilotacro and Kalyan. Since these participants had absolutely no idea about AD or Aeromodelling, I had to dose it down liberally. If we have advanced workshops for these participants, we'll have to get deeper into the theory of flight.

Regards.

Sumeet, thank you.

Ani - You've just joined this forum. It is too early for you to start judging it or its contents. Enjoy your stay and learn. ;)

+1 to VC Sir. Just keep reading on this forum for some more time. You would never find any Indian forum so dedicated to the hobby.

BTW, Welcome to RCI...Mystical.Ani.

Cheers.
