I have a Charger RC CR-2. It ROCKS!!!!! The side force generators make knife edge as simple as pie.

All the foamies mentioned are great...... but you want The BEST Foamie? Youll find it right between your ears! Instead of trying to pick a foamie from what's out there, take a sheet of paper and get to sketching. The best foamie is the one that you design for your own needs. Flying style, size, power, scale, original or out of this world. There's nought more satisfying than producing an airplane from nothing but your imagination and requirements. And who knows, someone else might like it too ![]() Sarge out. |

I agree the charger rc planes are AWOMSE!!!! I just crashed my shockwave bipe and am now in tears.... I absolutely loved the way it flew. Now I must wait for them to have some in stock again, and then imma going to get the cr-1\2 and another shockwave. Love their planes so much. And talk about durable, when hovering and having a dumb finger it doesnt matter just fling it back up. The only way to really break it beyond repair is to actually pluck the nose in first. Thats what happened with me, doing a rolling harrier (well trying) and did up when it was supposed to be down... Anyways love the charger planes!! |

Hey guys! I heard you are in the search for the perfect foamy, and well i have it here for you. I was planning not to unvail my new aircraft until all testing was complete by the russian government but due to the high demand of the perfect plane, i have decided to release it. All details are classified. Warning, alot of money and time has been put into this desgin. If there is any replication of this design, there will be major problems for you.

you can get custom foamies revengeX2 its a bipe plane very easy to built and if you going to contect tim(the owner of custom fomies) he can give you a nice price for the plane and a HACKER A20-20L WITH ESC for a good price |

indoor Imac extra 260 scratch If you don't like it, change what is wrong. If you have an inrunner this is your chance to build a full fuse foamy. If you can, have a look at the eflite qq yak. It will give you all the ideas you will ever need. If you want I am planning on building another scratch full fuse eflite yak and will do a build thread in January when I get back. Painting a foamy has now been made very easy Foamy Painting Thread

well as an update. i purchased the insane foamies yak. i liked it a lot (not as much as the monte). it flew great but my elevator servo has no torque so this afternoon i was pulling into a square harrier to hover and it never pulled. it plowed into the ground, so now i need a new servo and a new foamie. my frlying friend has many sheets of blue foam and i may scratch build one. im tired of paying 50 bucks for foamies!
