Built a Flitetest Versa Wing Pusher.
It will be used afterwards for fpv....
Thanks to Aniket for finding the source of biofoam and Flitetest for designing this easybuild wing.
I have 2 motors lying around and I cant decide which one to use on the wing. I have the bixler 1.1's 1900 kv motor and a hobbyking 2812/10 1400kv motor.... which one should I use?

Build planes like feathers rather than tanks, both handle bullets equally well.

Has anyone tried waterproofing biofoam? Like flitetest do by using minwax...

you don't need to waterproof biofoam... it's unlaminated... the min wax is for waterproofing the paper....

The unlaminated one isn't very good afterall..

Did this plane fly well and is it good for doing fpv how much was the overall weight of it. A flying video would be great.

i only get 8mm biofoam in udaipur. I made versa wing from it, it seems to be too heavy.
2200mah 3s lipo
birdie 20A esc
hextronik 9g servos
prop 8*4.5
hextronik blue wonder 1300kv motor
hobbyking 200mw 900mhz fpv system with 500mah 3s lipo

the weight without any batteries is 450g. what should i change, prop? motor? any help would be appreciated.

Could you please guide me on how to bend biofoam as i want to build a full airfoil and i have 6mm biofoam.
