Flat Foam Fighters
Have you ever built a plane so you can have fun wrecking it? You will, and you'll want to do it many times with our Flat Foam Fighters. Our Ten Gallon hats are off to the guy that figured out that styrofoam will fly.
These Combat Electrics are designed to be FUN, rugged, disposable and FUN! Reinforcing is balsa and packing tape. Our method is as stiff as carbon fiber and MUCH cheaper. These planes only cost about $3 $4 to build, not including radio or drive system. These designs have been battle tested with GWS 350 drive systems. They have no trouble dragging a streamer around with the 350 system, but you will appreciate more power. They are not designed for speed, but you do want good climbing ability. Although they are intended for inexpensive RC Combat action, they also make a great knock-around Fun Flyer. These planes can easily be built in an evening or two.
The next page demonstrates the rigidity of these designs.
