Build started on 27th with ribs cut and almost done in a day.
work remaining: motor mount, covering, hinges, servos and motors and she will be ready to fly.

Re: 1/8A LA stick for 6th sweepstakes
All set for covering.
added little fevicol on all joints for added strength, will be powered by a electric setup since the cox 0.010 is obsolete.
this is my first model in balsa hence took a simple model to gain some confidence. this has no tricky points, no dihedral, and just 2 servos and no rudder.
trying to find a suitable power setup for this.
any advice on the covering. i believe a normal covering would add too much weight on this.
This was completed in just 24 hours which lead to jr falcon. my next model.

Re: 1/8A LA stick for 6th sweepstakes
@ ashok ji neat build use the normal covering or use docylam for light weight but it is transperant. use emax 1806 for good performance.

Re: 1/8A LA stick for 6th sweepstakes
Using this one KK sir,
https://www.rcsportz.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=74_105&product_id=299
Seems like i have no idea about the temperature of iron, using a normal iron box covered with cotton cloth temp set to middle.
any ideas/alternates. entire fuse has been done, only the wing remains. wasted almost twice the amount of covering required for wing in this process.
i can get the help of my friend(janaf22) but would like to do it myself!
the expected AUW is around 150 gms for 20x4 inch wing.
now it stands about 80gms without battery, esc, servos and wing covering.

Didnt imagine my first model would come this good. Except a little cg correction required, all went fine and the model performed good, a little twitchy though!
