Re: How about a Giant Scale Foamy

Nice! How did you curve the depron like that? Also, maybe you already said and I missed it, what power plant will you use in this?

Re: How about a Giant Scale Foamy

The depron was shaped by hand to get a rough shape. I used a can of spray paint in my hand and slowly rolled the depron over the can with slight pressure. The power system I'm thinking is going to be the E-Flight 32. It totally depends on the AUW.. I'm shooting for a airframe weight with servos and RX will be just under 2lbs!! I am going to gang two futaba 3110 micro servos together to get a total of 44in/oz of torque per control surface.
JeeUm Thanks for the compliment!
