Status: offline 		3Dbatix has good plans.... but no airfoils just flat plate planes. You can add an airfoil though .

Status: offline 		I have been flying E-flights new Tribute FX which is foam with a fully symetrical airfoil. This is one of the best flying small electrics that i have flown. Flys smooth like a pattern ship on low rates is does great 3D on high rates. The landing gear is tough. Not much not to love about this little plane. I'm using e-flight park 450 with 20 amp speed control with 3 cell 1320 thunderpower batteries. This setup is almost too much power but sure is fun. I highly recommend this foamie.

Status: offline 		I have an old style "Stiffy" , a 3-d foamy Suk, an AirfoilZ yak, and a Hacker Sniper - all foamy, with something like an airfoil. I have set the Stiffy and 3d foamy aside with gear removed for other planes. Neither flew well for me. The Airfoilz yak flew pretty well but I like the Sniper much better. I scratch built a Skeeter 30 from free plans on Quicker's web site and it is the best of the lot. I recently finished a Skeeter 36 kit that I will fly soon. I also built a second Skeeter 30 from the plans. The 1st is still flying , and doing great but it is very beat from many small crashes.
