Foam is fun,less expensive,easier to scratch build with than balsa,can fly foamies just about anywhere. For a long time i thought of foamies as a crutch and concentrated on flying balsa almost exclusively. The goal was to eventually buy a 50cc size plane.. thats where balsa really starts to fly like foamies when it comes to the floaty parts of flying,but then your making a big commitment for just one big plane and also the transportation thing and how often will you actually get to fly it.. just stepping up to 55'' size electrics can get a bit pricey these days. For now im sticking to the foamies and i'll probally come up with more scratchbuilt stuff this winter to fly around with until spring.
