Hi all,

I was chatting to my dad a few weeks ago regarding foam cores. He is currently building a radio controlled glider which has foam core wings. Foam core being a foam core which is sandwiched in between a layer of balsa sheet.

They used blue foam which is meant to be the strongest type I think. Anyway I was thinking has anyone tried making an OTA using foam core? Advantages being it is relatively light weight and is pretty damn strong.

Anyway what are your thoughts and could it be done?
