No I'm not referring to monocote.

Monocote is for covering ribbed aircraft.
These are foamies. I believe it's PET or PLL ... I don't know. They sell it as laminate in a variety of thicknesses for foamies. Usually only the wings are "laminated" with the material.

Fiberglass used on the whole bird.

Thanks anyway guys for the responses, sorry i don't have the knowledge to be more specific. Just using terms everyone else seems to be using.. In video after video after video on the subject.

I'll research the two methods further and either figure it out my own. Or ask those familiar with these type aircraft and the two methods of coatings or coverings or laminating or whatever the heck people want to call it.


I was just hoping to learn from those with much more experience than I in the matter.

Cheers...
