The plans are for depron but i m using corrugated plastic sheet which can be easily stick together by quickfix as well as it has two layers of plastic so if we cut one layer carefull in line we can easily fold it at any desired angle.
i followed this plan for flat body.
lower part i followed original picture of f22
