About Me:
I work for an NGO the education health and development foundation , I have an interest and hobby in RC planes , and I just started building my own planes about a year or so back, I am more in to SPADs. These are built from cloroplast plastic sheets, aka corrugated plastic sheets, which is a durable ,light and reliable material.
Please tell us a bit about your UAV interest
interested in uav applications in relief work, I work for an NGO the education health and development foundation , i thought that if I personally funded a project that could develop a UAV to help in search, rescue and emergency relief efforts it would be a great asset to the NGOs working in Pakistan for dealing with future disasters. Having experienced some of the worst earthquakes and floods I know that areas become inaccessible on foot, being able to get a clear picture of where help is needed and enabling prioritization of aid efforts is just as important as mustering public support for the relief efforts. Perhaps the apm system is a good simple system that is cost effective and well suited for this type of job.

Does anyone know how one can construct fiberglass airframes or where you could send a design in and get it done professionally? is there a DIY way to constructing fiberglass airframes?
"only transparency paper, i may have made that mistake , but its just regular transparency paper. you dont need iron on paper."
"Is there a special type of prop that needs to be used in quadcopters,slow flyer prop, what is that ?"
"i think if you never flew before you might want to get a simulator and practice on your computer a bit before trying out a .61 motor 7ft rc plane, you will also need to install servos to control the airleons, rudder, elevons, and if there are flaps…"
"how did you iron the monocote to the foam ?"
"no problem , i was just sharing what i have found to be very useful myself being a complete newbie,"
