I have never used Depron foam ( not EPP ) and I have some questions about the material.
What is its weight, compared to Balsa ?
How rigid / flexible is it ?
Does it break easily?
What adhesives are compatible with it and which are not ?
Can it be sanded ( airfoiled ) and used for Glider wings ( Competition gliders ) and fins ?
In those applications, would it need to be "braced" ( carbon fiber strips ) and / or vaccum-bagged with light FG cloth ?
What are the best sources to get it from ?
Thanks, in advance !
