FUN-SCALE ZERO
o those who still like to build their own models rather than purchase an ARF, a sheet foam profile model offers a lot of flying fun for a relatively small investment in materials, cost and construction time. The sheet foam profile A6M Mitsubishi Zero is a little different in that it utilizes a hot-wire-cut foam wing rather than a flat-sheet foam wing. I first tried a foam wing on a light profile model as a way to get better flying capability in windy conditions. I liked the way it flew, so I used this construction technique to develop some “fun” warbirds. They fly well, had plenty of aerobatic performance and I like the way they looked.
