Title: STAPLES - B'lore Post by: rajathv8 on March 12, 2011, 12:36:40 PM Staples sells foam kits. I noticed:
1. rubber powered gliders 35cm wing span with electric rubber winder for Rs. 900 (su and stuff) 2. Foam chuck gliders ~30cm w/s for 225 (mig) 3. Larger foam chuckies - Rs.450 (mig, f-22, f-15 etc) 4. Rubber winder - Rs 225 Saw these at Ring-road and near Forum outlets. I have nothing to do with these. Just providing info. Search for "aeromodelling" on their site: http://www.staplesfuture.com/catalog.asp Title: Re: STAPLES - B'lore Post by: Akshayb on March 12, 2011, 12:54:07 PM I have also seen these gliders at their J.P Nagar store.
Though I find them priced at higher side. Title: Re: STAPLES - B'lore Post by: rajathv8 on March 12, 2011, 01:32:33 PM Yup but its too tempting to buy them. I never go to staples alone for this reason :D
Title: Re: STAPLES - B'lore Post by: ujjwaana on March 12, 2011, 03:36:50 PM Wow!! I wonder how I missed to share the same. The site does no have pics, but I am sharing the same. the build is not tough, and I would more suggest for Static display, though one could put small motor around.This was taken at Staples near Forum/St John's Hospital Bangalore circa late 2009.
I am also sharing some Kites I saw at Decathlon store on Sarjapur Road (http://www.decathlon.in/) Priced between :Rs: 800-1600 Title: Re: STAPLES - B'lore Post by: Akshayb on March 12, 2011, 07:12:32 PM Hi Ujjwaana,
Nice pictures, I have not seen Guillow's models at their J.P Nagar store, I wonder if they are still available with them. Not every body can shop at Decathlon, you need to be registered to shop at their store.

Title: Re: STAPLES - B'lore Post by: Akshayb on March 13, 2011, 11:20:21 PM It's quite easy to get membership of this store, as long as you own a business or know some body who owns a business.
Kites should be available at many places in Bangalore, As Bangalore have it's own Kite festival. I bought Dozens of them from City Market in 10th of that price. ;) |
