Hi All! :)
How can I get a very accurate airfoil in a foam wing with a cutting bow?
Do you recommend a spcial foam type?
I would be happy to learn new ways of cutting the airfoil in a foam wing...

Hadar :cool:

"Do you recommend a spcial foam type?"
It depends on the structure design. That depends on strength, stiffness, density of the foam, etc, etc.

Begin with another's simple design like:
