Where do you buy depron? I'm sitting in Pensacola FL without a plane.... *sniff* Any help is appreciated! If you know of a hobby shop in the area and a place to fly please let me know also!


Thanks!

http://www.depronusa.com/servlet/StoreFront The home page lists some as sold out, but the order page shows them in stock.

These guys will sell you all you need. Check out the different sizes and shipping costs. It's best to get a few guys together for a big order to spread out the shipping cost.

Also, check out Charger RC's CR-1 plane. Get one of these and cut more 6mm sheets into spare planes. You can cut out a new one for about $10. It's a bit big for indoors, although I fly mine indoors. Outside, it's a blast!

then visit the f3p forum and choose a plan like the ultra light yak, blingbling etc... I have built some planes with 10mm EPP (lighter than 3mm depron) with very good results

HEY HEY!!!

If your in Pensacola, your in my old neighborhood.

Go see Tony Stillman at Radio South. He's probably got all the depron you need, and tons of other stuff you will want. Tell Tony I said hi.

3702 N. Pace Blvd.
Pensacola, FL 32505

There are two other hobby shops there.
One is in University Mall
and the other is
Bobe's Hobby Shop on "W" street right before you get to Airport Blvd.


As far as flying....Tony can tell you where all the flying sites are. There are about 6 of them there. The nicest one is called Fritz Field out on Mobile Hwy. Its a club field, but Im sure they would be glad to have you as long as you have a current AMA card. Im not sure if they are still doing the indoor flying thing at Pine Forest High School or not, it used to be every tuesday and thursday night after 7pm. Might want to check it out if you want some indoor action.

I find depron USA to be a bit too pricey. Check out www.rcfoam.com

They have much better deals.
