Default Slow foamie design

I didn't see a foamie section. I guess this is as good as any.

I've been playing with blue core foam. I've made a few 3D planes and some other "attempts" at a custom design.

Any suggestions on a foamie design that's really slow? Like that I could fly in a 1 acre front yard? I've got a 400 sized brushless with all the equipment, but none of the designs I've tried so far will putt around in the yard. I guess I'm just not that good.

Obviously a large wing is a must. Aerobatics would be nice, but nothing that necessarily flies 3D. The pizza fliers I've seen are pretty UN-exciting, although they do fly slow.
