If you specify a Trailing Edge Thickness value that is less than twice the Sheeting Allowance, your foam core will be short. Some TE blending may be required.

Spar slots are an EXTRA COST Option. Select NONE if not needed.

Spar slots will be cut for the full length of the panel. Fill in values for

location, width and depth. For multiple spar slots, enter additional

information below, or send a sketch or drawing to bob@flyingfoam.com.

We do not recommend spar slots for most foam wings, as they add complexity

and do not significantly increase the strength of the wing. Click Here for more

information about wing strength, foam selection and spars.

Wing / Joiner tube holes are an EXTRA COST option.

Select NONE if not needed.

Holes can be full length of the panel, or BLIND. Blind holes

require a rectangular slot at the end of the hole for bow

access. You can specify the size of this rectangular hole, or

we will make it the minimum allowable size.

For either hole type, and entry kerf is required to get the wire into

the hole. The entry can be either from the top or bottom of the core.

These specifications are required.

Name of your model or project (optional)

*Tip Setback Distance

Enter a distance to define a swept wing or zero for a straight leading edge.

Wing tube or Joiner tube (Round):

Hole Center location from Leading Edge

Hole Center location from Airfoil centerline

We will send your quote to this Email address. Make sure it is correct!!

*Trailing Edge Thickness

All values that you enter here are for the

FINISHED WING after is has been sheeted, and the LE cap strip and/or TE Stock have been added.

*Select a foam type. Cores pricing is based on size and foam

type, so this has a direct effect on price of your cores.

All of the information that we use to program our CNC Hot Wire foam cutting machines can be provided here. You can use this page for a single core, or a 2 or 3 piece core set.

A 2 piece core set has 1 left and 1 right hand core.

A 3 piece set adds a constant chord center panel.

You can choose from thousands of named airfoils, and 9 different foam types. You can add optional spar slots, and wing tube or joiner holes to your cores. Core size is limited only by the foam material and equipment that we use.

Fill in the blanks, then click the Submit button at the bottom of the page. We will return a quote to the Email address that you provide. Make sure it is correct!

Fill in the *Required Information Entries and any Options for Spar Slots and/or Wing Tube or Joiner Tube holes. When you have finished, click on the SUBMIT button at the bottom of this page to send your request to FlyingFoam.com. We will send you a quote the next business day.

How many methods can you think of to define dihedral? We know of at least 8. Click here to find out.

An entry kerf is required for all Wing Tube and Joiner Tube holes.

Blind Tube holes require an access hole as shown below. You can specify the size of this hole if desired.

We define a "set" as the number of foam panels required to build 1 airplane. We are going to assume that your plane has 2 wing panels (1 left, 1 right), 2 stab panels, and 1 fin core. If your project has a different count that this, please indicate this in the text area at the bottom of this form.

This page asumes that you are describing a 2 panel set, 1 right hand and 1 left hand foam panel.

You can use this form for a single foam panel. Just let us know this in the comments section at the bottom of this form.

If you need a 3rd constant chord center panel for a 3 panel set, simply tell us the span of the center panel, and we will use the root airfoil and chord information to cut this panel.
