Dinkar Narwade is a primary school teacher in a small village in India. He has managed to get a Squirrel together from bamboo wood. He’s still working on the propeller. I just sent him a package so we can look forward to some more pictures and perhaps some video.
I just came across a Squirrel at Epic Creation Thingys…
Here’s what he said:
“This is the model plane i made with balsa wood, tissue paper, toothpicks, a rubber band and a propeller. I have to give the credit to Darcy Whyte for providing the design & instructions. It flies great and lasts for a long time. search squirrel model plane and go to the rubber-pwer website to make it. All dimensions are in inches. Sorry my posts are getting gayer and gayer, i am having less time to do this.”
Here’s a nice picture from Hamed from Shiraz in Iran.
These kids are having a blast! It’s clear they are learning to trim (adjust for flight) but they got a few nice flights!
