Thanks brotha. I can't wait to see how this one flys. All my others have been DTF and my buddy wanted this his to be made out of XPS. I did find one thing I like about the XPS is it handles regular ole spray paint very well. I still did lighter mist coats to build it up to the darkness I wanted but I took a piece of scrap and just sprayed it on real heavy and it just very lightly melted the surface of the foam.

Here is my foamy cub I built a couple weeks ago. Just finished the floats last night and flew it off the water this morning. My first time ever float flying and I had an absolute blast. Now that I know everything works and it flys well it's time for it to get a paint job. Here are a couple videos as well. Enjoy.

I love the foamies, here's my current stable minus the purple slick.

The one kind of hidden on the back left is my first attempt at a 3D foamy - a RadicalRC Edge 540 from back in probably 2002. Originally a brushed motor on an 8cell NIMH pack, now converted to brushless. The green Yak-54 is my first home built.

I got a GoPro for my birthday and shot some video of the Yak: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8B6MdLo-zfU



For Christmas last year I built 5 different foamies for family & friends all with lights. I'm still burnt out on cutting & gluing & painting foam. Built this Edge for my Dad - the hand prints on the bottom wing are from my 3 boys.
