An RV and an Air Tractor would be awesome. Oh, the Twin Otter too. And all the rest of them 🤣
It looks like Andres is working with flitetest to release an EPP foamie he’s designing. As far as a foam board one it’s hard to get it light enough but @Headbang did an amazing job on designing one!

What is this EPP you speak of??
It’s a type of virtually indestructible foam.

I have built an A pack version with the wieght cut way down. Becomes more for indoor tho. Gets too light for any amount of wind. Key is to use CF strips instead of doubling up on FB. And it can go even lighter by using a park 300ish motor, 500mAh 2s battery, and feather light rx.

Did someone say an RV? How about an RV8...wink wink
Also, yes, EPP 3D foamie. That one will take some more work to get into production since it's not foamboard, but I'm hoping that we can make that happen too. Fingers crossed.

This is pretty close to what you're looking for https://www.thehangarrc.com/hrc-seven/

I love the RV series. My first GA flight was in a RV-7. I also used to have a 30cc RV-8. They're great planes!

I think something similar to the Dream-Flight Alula would be cool.

this may seem ludicrous or counter intuitive, but i just love the look of the bigger warbirds, but the idea of them being really twitch and prone to tip stall( as a relative beginner) i would love to see an option on the master series warbirds, for under-camber wings and a bit of dihedral etc, to help us neophytes fly them a bit better. i know this will detract from their "scale" appearance. but sure would get us flying a lot more of them.
and as an after mod, the undercamber wing could be closed in properly at a later stage, as one progresses.
i understand that the wing loading, and the monocoque construction is what delivers the strength.

No joke was just talking about making a jet provost lol. It is on the build list for a future date. I can't find any good 3 views though

May the force be with you always

Thank you, but I just found one a few minutes ago! It doesn't have any formers though so I guess I'd just have to free hand them.. Actually is there any way for you to get a shot of how the exhaust exits the fuselage?I have a 1/72 scale model of it so chose what wingspan you would like and i shall give you the dimensions if you want
