repairing foam
I'm new to park flyers - my first is a GWS Pico Stick F. How do you repair damaged foam parts? (I'm taking some hits on the fuselage around the landing gear mount.) Thanks!

If you are talking about dents, I do not worry about them. I try to put packing tape were I think the abuse will be. If there are cracks, tears, broken parts I use white glue, probond, titebond or 5 minute epoxy.

if you can't find ProBond, use Gorilla Glue. I've used both, and with a good spritz of water on the glue and area to be patched, it dries much faster than ProBond (about 1/2 the time in my experience)
