Default Original Design Foamy

Just finished this one tonight so I have no idea how it will fly. The goal is to have a foamy that flies smooth. It has an aluminum tube stiffener that runs down the center of the fuse to keep the tail from twisting and screwing up knife edge flight. The ailerons have counterbalances and the rudder has them on top and bottom.

Very interesting. Lengthy tail moment will help smooth out things some. I built a big foamy modeled after a U can do 3D, it is smoother. You may lose some ability to do walls and other high G stuff though.
