Tip/Tail Polystyrol-plate?

Post by Christian »

Hello everybody,
because of that I dont get the 2mm ABS-plastic plates for the tip/tail construction I was wondering whether I also could use a polystyrene-plate, which I could buy in every building store.
Does it bond well with the epoxid too?

Thanks for helping me

P.S. Congrats for your perfect homepage. When my first pair ready I will post some pictures.

Yes you can glue with epoxy, but it can be too soft, so it will not withstand compression. Look for Airex or Depron, in a shop selling RC model planes.
