I am in need of a CNC Foam wing cutting service to cut wings for my winter project. Any Recommendations? I do know how to build my own foam wing cutter...I don't have time however to do that and build the plane also. Thanks for any recommendations on someone set up and in business to do this.

| www.flyingfoam.com. they are in Texas. the guy running it is an electronics genious - he may have been one of the first to offer CNC wings, and he designed the cutter himself. He can D-tube, spar cut, tube socket cut, you name it.

gotta second flyingfoam.com. He cut a set of cores for me for a scratch-build project i've been picking at. By far they were the best set of foam cores I've ever seen. Smooth as glass and EXACTLY as I requested. The price was very fair as well.

Well since you asked, I got my hands on a 1/3 scale clipped wing cub the other day and ran it up and down the runway on one wheel and just had a blast with all of the slow stuff. The idea is to create a clipped winged Cub with no dihedral. Ever seen Waren Peitsch in his clipped T-craft? Besides I need to give the Krill katana a break. http://www.pietschaircraft.com/media/tcraft_qt.php
