I've now switched to Model Plane Foam(MPF) it is close to 6mm, white, works and paints just like depron, is slightly less stiff, but with a through the tube mounting with a single carbon spar is working as good as the depron. It's slightly lighter as well.

Nice looking 'tweener' this is, a break from the standard angular fare. Kind of like the Concorde, where I have the hardest time getting those compound wing curves right, so I'd fudge them more angular instead.

Have you found a suitable replacement for the old 6mm Depron yet? Still not convinced about the Adams/Flite-test stuff, since you indicated it's not readily gluable with usual stuff.

Keeping a good eye on what you're turning out. You gotta run outta room for these things at *some* point, right??
