OK, that is a good start. Now, each roll of wallfoam costs less than £4, you only need one 30 metre roll, its enough for dozens of models. You need that UHU por glue too, very good stuff for gluing the EPS type foams. An exacto knife is the most useful cutting instrument for wallfoam. I suggest, since you live in the UK, to look up www.robotbirds.com. They are based just North of London so buying and shipping within the UK makes it helpful to avoid international shipping nonsense. Robotbirds sells EVERYTHING you would need to get started, even that UHU por glue. The have foam, carbon fibre, X-Twins, Miniums, etc pretty much the works. The owner is very friendly and will not hesitate to give you very helpful advice over the phone. You tell him your skill level and what you want to build and he will sort you out with some gear. The prices are not too bad either. www.indoorflyer.co.uk is another place to find some good micro RC hardware from within the UK.
Now, if you could kindly explain what you have built and maybe show us prior examples so that we may have a better understanding of your skill level so we can offer the correct advice.
