Default RE: PiccoZ Micro R/C heli

Yup, as i said you could use meat tray foam....they are usually made of Zepron.
Innerds: I use 2 sided tape to hold the battery down and CA glue on the tail where it meets the body...thats it. I tried useing EPP but it soaks up CA too easy, sanding was ugly and unless it's molded like the original, it looks ratty in this scale.
The Blackhawk body could make the tail too heavy. But, give it a try! If you look at the pics of the bodies I made, they all start off square and I sand the contours into them. This lessens the weight too.
Yesterday I plowed my Hind-gunship Picoo into my F-16 that i have hanging in the Den at full speed. I broke a flybar but not the body!!! A little rubber CA and she was back straffing Rambo (The Cat) in 30 minutes. [8D]
