Hi all,
I'm building foam planes. The first 1 I built, is a flying wing. Called The Dead Simple Wing. Too fast as I only have the park flyer membership.
It wasn't perfect but it flew.
I'm now building an ov-10 Bronco. The plan calls for 3/16 foam board. .1875 thick. I have a box of 6 mm board. 6mm = .152 thick. Will my 6mm work?

it should work even better, but you may want to weigh it, that is more important than thickness

appreciate the info.

I'm a huge fan of the air hogs Aero Ace. The little bipe is more than a toy. I removed lower wing completely and trimmed flanges on fuse. I also shortened top wing span by about 1/2 inch total. I was able to maintain altitude at 1/3 throttle and have flight that lasted almost 15 min. I have 1 motor that quit working. Id like to get the bird going again so I can fly it around my house. That little plane taught me a lot about RC. I have flown several different planes. Some of them are full 4 channel. Does anybody know how I can fix my bird? Or anybody do repairs? Sorry about the rambling. I'm building a very interesting OV-10 Bronco. 14 in wingspan using the FT EZ 2-channel power pack. I would rather have a 3 channel so I could run elevator on this tiny bird.

Thanks for listening
Riley
