      I had that question too. And you must be an American because the Titan Wild is not available here and in fact the Titan Wild he is using is contact cement and I can only find Titan Glue for concrete blocks on the internet.
      I use Foam Tac from Beacon on my work with sheet foam.

It’s so slow and peaceful. Thank you for sharing

    Fantastic work. Instead of using sandbags, in the 'old' days when we built balsa wood models, we used pins to hold pieces together while the glue dried. When dry, you just pull out the pins and there's only a little hole left which gets filled when you paint the model or cover it with a film. You can make all sorts of odd shapes hold together that way and if you need more strength, just use more pins. If the parts want to pull apart, just put the pins in at an angle.

    I've actually built an RC airplane once back in the 80's using the paper plans from a Do it yourself kit everything was a pattern in the same dimensions, I went to a hobby shop and bought a bunch of balsa wood using sharp razors and hacksaw Blades. I was able to build and lay out every part it was a lot of fun, it flew just like the one in the kit ,I'm going to do it again

    the key tothe build is the aerofoil. everything else is standard plane building. good job no doubt, but the motor and prop, combined with the shape of the foil gives it the slow speed. i love slow flyers..thought the tail assembly was a little too complex. couldve just glued it to the top surface.

    Well done. I also make compress styrofoam aircraft. The current one is a tailess swept wing design for high speed chase. Therefore only 2 servos required. The weight will be below 250gm and powered by 3S at 10amps max power. Cruising current around 7amps . Still under construction. 80 percent completed the wing and airframe.

    I see a lot of attention to keeping the build very lightweight even though it is also fragile. The fact it will only fly slow with the small motor should help prevent over stressing the airframe. I like watching slow and graceful fliers, even if the only days they can fly are very calm and breeze limited.

    Технология изготовления крыла интересная. Вместо дефицитной бальзы можно использовать деревянную липовую линейку, а вместо авиационной фанеры фанеру от ящиков импортных фруктов - она сделана из какого-то лёгкого дерева, возможно даже из бальзы. Ещё могу порекомендовать вклеить изнутри носовой части фюзеляжа, от моторамы по бортам, разрезанную по диагонали линейку - это в разы увеличивает механическую устойчивость к втыканиям в землю.

    Very interesting but the construction method is slightly complicated for a beginner.
    Those who want to simplify it with a very little penalty in performance, could use the wing section with flat bottom (eventualy the upper surface of trailing edge overhangs for 2 cm) and reinforce structural critical points, for example the internal white sheet of fuselage and the upper surface of fuselage to to be extended 5 cm further the trailing edge (in opposit direction) to avoid the abrupt interruption of the structure (+2 g? but much better).
