Just a suggestion, since it is a workshop, then you should go for foamies instead of balsa kits... Balsa kits require atleast intermediate level skills for building and flying.. Also, these are not very much crash proof. I too had organised a workshop few days back, so I know how the beginners respond and work.
Also, foam planes would cost you very low as compared to balsa...

@pateldixit58
Maybe what you need is a Mercury Gnome by Ron Young from 1952.
Which we got from India's Hobby Centre in 1968 or so...
Maybe they still have some...
Search for it. Your search will be joyous!
Also try Sharma Model Aero in Jodhpur. Vivek Sharma is on this forum.

(Since you seem to be 1958 born, presume you know stuff like auto rudder, circle tow etc)

Please call me tomorrow after 6pm. I am open to bulk orders (20+) only. Even though I have many plans for 1000 mm span gliders,my manufacturer won't cut single pieces.

VC Sir,
For the un initiated (me) can we see pictures of gliders that you mentioned above
I assume if pateldixit58 goes ahead then your manufacturer won't mind cutting one or two more kits, if yes I am in line.

VC sir,

I need a glider that i can put a electric system and fly for at least 15 mins continuous, should be a bird of time.
No hurry, just one piece needed and i can wait any longer. Just add me to the queue and let me know when you have any.

Manufacturer may not be willing to make any extra modifications for small orders (below 15 models). In that case the models will be available as intended for (Tow Line Gliders) and the buyers will have to make necessary modifications for mounting motors and servos. I'm trying to arrange for pictures of NCC1 and 2. The other models may be viewed on Google.

Though it looks more like a profile type fuselage,
A 24 gram outrunner with 15A ESC with 800mah 2s should give plenty of fun.

Hope you guys have seen a Magpie or Martin or Gnome or Inchworm.
Before you consider an RC conversion. There will be issues...
If you want space for a radio and a motor, and adequate size to carry the extra weight, consider a model called the Grebe.
VC Sir or Shobit may remember this model.
We were using a Cox .049 instead of noseweight in 1970...
