    When I was (much) younger, we used to cut with a scapel, glue with white glue and cover with ‘Japanese paper’. Hours of work for a sometimes curious result. Lasers, 3D printers and mylar have revolutionised model making. But if you have a steady hand and a lot of practice, what seems easy to do is not! beautiful work, silence and perfect shot

    Yep, gas powered noisy and smelly engines if you could afford it. For me it was mostly tow launched gliders and a two channel radio control that cost a fortune. More crashes than successful flights.

    Beautiful! That's how we used to do it - except for the foam parts, all balsa & ply. I lost count of how many models I built in decades past, using this technique. The video brought it all ack. Thanks for that. And... well done, sir.

    That's excellent! A beautiful model and a very enjoyable video. I operate on a tiny budget, so still build planes the old-fashioned (i.e. cheap!) way; modern tech such as computer design software, laser-cutting and 3-D printing has really transformed the hobby - but in a GOOD way. I'd love to be able to produce laser-cut parts like you; the precision is amazing. That thin foam looks very good, too. I'll have to see if I can find some here in the UK, because the price of balsa wood is becoming ridiculous. Thanks for the video, and HAPPY LANDINGS. 🙂

    @@finn_mcmissile I am also a fan of foam but you missed weight. No way can an E-power 2M foam wing weigh 224gm/8oz. That said, this wing is really only for ZERO wind and too light to be practical. Everything about an aircraft, big or small, is a compromise. When you say foam is "cheaper", compared to what? Depending on wing span foam cores from a CNC shop are $60 to $80 for literally $2 of foam. Most of the cost is setup time and shipping. If you're talking about a store-bought plane, the last one I bought was a Multiplex Fun Cub, now about $150 with no motor or electronics. Few kits of that size cost much less. I'm guessing the wing in the video can be built for about $60 total, $15 airframe and $45 motor and electronics.

    I remember *_WAY_* back when I was in school, I once lent out a Book on DIY Topics that had one Project within it with plans for a Soaring Plane ( the classic design with an elongated Fuselage ) using a similar construction for the Wings ( and Fuselage ). Laser Cutters ( or CNC Machines ) were obviously not a thing back then ( at least not for regular ppl outside of the industry ) thus requiring a different approach to making things like the progressively tapered ribs like shaping them out of a condensed block of wood ( internal cavities and all ) using just two guides at the ends and then sawing the individual ribs out of the block using a bandsaw ( or perhaps stacking sheets of Balsa? ). Nowadays you just either Laser Cut, CNC Mill or 3D Print ( on much more affordable Equipment ) them out using your respective material of choice. Never once built such a plane despite its intrigue 🤣

    have you tried to put a propeller inside a wing, like a ducted fan, but in blower fan style, one per wing on each side, total of two, yep large delta wings or square wings work better with internal large prop. possibly multiple smaller side-by-side wing-internal props would work too.
