how to on a profile?
hi all
im gonna make a profile plane around 46" wing. hopfull gonna make it out of blue foam and use balso for outher bits, but i have a few questions, so here they are:
1) how do i make a strong wing joint
2)how do i make a strong engine mount
3)would i put an UC on it or not
im also going to put an all moving tail on it.

Might not be possible to have a wing/fuselage strong enough just with foam. Actually, I am going to say it's not with that blue stuff.
Maybe if you sheet it all...But that's sort of ridiculous for a Profile which is already easy to build out of sticks.
There's my contribution...
