    Flapping foam ailerons

    When building long ailerons from foam, they tend to warp when moved. How to solve the problem? Use balsa?

    Yup, balsa of coroplast are good substitude. If you really want to use foam, a piece of CF rod may help stiffen it abit.

    How long are the ailerons you making? Is the warping due to the hinges?
