am about to build my first flying wing plane. ;D
I wanted to know which foam would be best for this type of plane.
I want to build airfoil with hot wire cutter.  So, please tell me foamtype that I can find in a foam store.  :)

Hi Dixant

Use depron.
If you don't find that, go with coroplast.
If its your first plane, then you should go with coro. It can handle quite a beatings from a beginner  ;)
