Default RE: Fun with Flat Foam

The one thing that suprised me more than anything was my ultralight.

With wheel pants it cruises at 60 MPH (GPS verified)
With the wheel pants removed -55 MPH

I never would have guessed such a difference in speed.

I guess thats why I make my own canopies and servo covers and just try to clean things up on the foamies.

I use a soldering iron to bury the carbon fiber rods.etc
