Best foam glue?
Hey guys I was wondering what the best foam glue is and what I need? Im building an indoor 3d plane and I need to keep it as light as possible and durable.
What do you guys think about this : [link=http://www.filadelfosrc.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&catid=42 :supplies&id=146:foamtac]Beacon Foam-Tac Glue - 2oz bottle[/link]
Thanks!

Try RC56 canopy glue. This works well and the bond is stronger than the foam. I used this on a Depron plane, and when the vertical stabilizer broke, the break was about 3/16" above the glue joint.

+1 on the RC56.
Not only does it give a good bond and have reasonably good gap filling ability, it is also flexible enough for resilience when dumb thumbs strike.
