Default RE: sheeting foam wing ?

Thanks fellas!

The apc system looks great! I really want to get this build under my belt before I invest in a vacuum system. I, like most us here, am afflicted with rcaholism so I know I'll build another one. I just don't want this wing to fail on me. I'm pretty sure that on my next build I'll use vac and poly glue to adhere skins. It seems like the lightest, strongest way to go. With that said, on THIS build I'll be using west systems epoxy applied with a body knife that I have knotched every 1/4" and WEIGHT. Designer recommended AT LEAST 1/4 lb per sq in, so I doubled that. Sounds like the more weight I can round up the better off I'll be.

Any other advice?

Thanks in advance!
