I got hooked on this hobby last year, and I'm in the process of building my 3rd foam board electric powered plane. My plan for this year, once the lock down is over, was to join a club and learn to fly properly. I can fly in local fields, and have been out a few times.
However, I've always wanted to get a gas engined plane at some point.
So I was wondering if it's possible to build a gas powered foam board plane? I ask mainly as FB is cheap, and easy to repair/rebuild should things go wrong.
The thought of building or buying a balsa plane, only for it to end up in splinters, is something I want to avoid. I would like to build a balsa plane eventually anyway, but only once I'm a capable flyer.
