About EPP Foamies

 
EPP (Expanded Polypropylene) foam is a fairly recent innovation that has revolutionized the slope soaring segment of our hobby and is rapidly finding applications to the mainstream R/C community.  Slope combat enthusiasts are making scale warbirds out of this material for full contact combat. These planes are flown in 30+ mph ridge lift and are designed to ram into each other at high speed and crash to the ground with no damage. EPP foam doesn't dent or break. It has a "spongy" quality to it, so on impact it compresses and pops back to shape. I have nose dived my Tornado II straight into the ground during "rough landings" only to have it bounce about 3 feet in the air and come to rest upside down.  The only damage was some grass stains on the tape covering.  Having this kind of crash resistance is truly liberating.
