Well done Sandeep

A fantastic job on the wheels too..i suppose you sanded them...right??
How did you color the blu baby? what color did you use???

Also any ideas how to do pushrods from home made stuff...dont have any CF rods and am building a foamy too..will post log soon


Regards

Hi Ankur,
wheels are also made from depron sheet using a small steel bowl as round die, then sanded togive a round edge shape.
i havent used any paint but yes i ahve used the blue and pink marker pen.
For Push Rods : i am considering that you have steel wire, use the flower broom  and take out round sticks which u think is tough enough to withstand the load.
You can also use bamboo stick well carved as round stick in place of broom stick...
see the attached image for your reference :

Yes, These are the fiber rods....used in the push rod picture (cream color) in my blu cub which i took from OFC cable...i have no idea of the weight but it is similar to the one used in the landing gear...
