Thanks mate, this forum is awesome. Ive never had my questions answered so fast or so nicely! You guys are very helpful! I found another link I would like to share that explains in detail several aspects of constructing RC airplanes from scratch.
http://www.airfieldmodels.com/index.htm -------- On a different note, I have decided to test my designs using foam instead of balsa wood. My reasoning for this is speed of construction. Are there other factors Im unaware of that makes this a bad decision? Tips on shaping foam would be helpful also, lol. Thanks!
Scratcher - Thanks for the link. Looks like a great site. I'll have to check it out.
Foam is generally a little heavier, but not enough so to cause serious problems. I don't use foam so I can't tell you much about it. Search through RCU though. Cutting foam has been discussed many times.
