Does anyone know where to get Foam Board in Bangalore ?
I am sure that you will find it somewhere in Bangalore. If not, get in touch with me:
http://www.rcindia.org/for-sale/depron-foam-core-board-%286mm%29/
its available in some stationary shops in blore, in koramangala bda complex, or the stationary shop opposite christ college. :)
Foam board is available @JC road. You'll be able to find it with people who make temporary/cheap number plates for vehicles.
EDIT - Google maps link https://maps.google.co.in/maps/myplaces?hl=en&ll=12.955504,77.587037&spn=0.025679,0.048795&ctz=-330&t=m&z=15
Veloci those are foam boards not foam for rc plane I think... those foam boards using for number plates are too stiff and more weight... I tested making a plane with that the weight is more and will break easily.. :(
Any other source in Bangalore for depron at least I am coming there this weekend...

as in bangalore happen to come across a very good foam source. VIJAY TRADING COMPANY
he deals in BLUE FOAM ( similar to dollar tre one as seen in videos) 1.5 inch thick and 1.5 sq mt. costs around 900/sq mt
also stocks fibre glass cloth (120gsm costs 50/sqmt), fibre tapes( 250 for a 2 inch roll), and lots of other materials

Are you talking about low density thermocol? Because that's the only foam I've seen them sell in the Kormangala BDA complex.

Just wanted to add a note since information in your post could be misleading. Blue Foam and dollar tree foam are two completely different materials. Blue foam is normally sold in blocks and is a good option for cutting foam wing cores. Dollar tree foam on the other hand is sold in sheets of 5~6mm thickness with paper backing on both sides. Bio-foam (local name) is a very good alternative to foam board which is cheap and easy to source in India.
U can get foam board at jayanagar in rc bazzar. U can get the address to this shop in google maps.
