I meant to say foamboard, not sunboard. Above post updated.

After seeing what biofoam / foamboard as it is available locally in India and real depron, the difference is huge.

Well.. Too bad that i cannot experience the real stuff..
However once at a Clas Ohlson store in Oslo i saw a sheet material marked as Depron that was rolled up and looked like EPP.

That is one of the big differences... true depron handles bends much better than biofoam.

Yes I did... the experience was bad... I crashed it around 10 times before sparing its life.. later i came to know that the reason might be that it could never achieve flyable speed coz i was taking it off from grass. Had no previous flying experience. but then I was able to fly my friends Dolphin glider reasonably well and realised what went wrong.. Ill upload the videos and would appreciate if you could guide me.. I really love that plane and would like to continue with it..
