The problem with flying is gravity. Gravity most often wins and you are left with a plane that will not fly any more. You may have rudder or aeileron damage that can be easily fixed. But what about any Chunks that missing from your plane. They will affect the aerodynamics of flight. You have to repair these.
You may have further damage from a crash beyond aeilerons and rudders. You can repair these with balsa wood or a combination of fill and clear packing tape.
Let us focus on ?Chunks?. These would be large parts of your Styrofoam plane that might be missing due to the crash you must have experienced. These too are repairable. The basic theory of flight is that you have an aerodynamic craft that will fly. When chunks are missing, simply fill them with some type of cloth or excess Styrofoam and then cover this section with clear packaging tape that will fill the gap to the original shape of the damaged section. As long as the air flowing over the surface can?t tell that there is something missing, then it really does not matter what it looks like. If you are sensitive to appearance, then get some spray paint and have at it. Aerodynamics does not care about appearance. If the plane meets the requirements of this simple equation then it will fly, if not, it will not.
If you have completed all the obvious repairs to the plane using the techniques explained above, then you are ready to attempt flight once more. Put the plane on the flight line and do some touch and go landings to see if the plane flies true. If it does not, then make slight adjustments until it conforms to your expectations.
If you have damaged your plane severely you obviously have had some serious damage due to a crash. There is a limit to what can be salvaged and if you have are at the end of your rope, now with this shell of an airplane, then you may not be able to salvage it.
There is a time when you call in your chips and simply accept that you have done all that you can. IE: it?s time to buy a new plane. If you still think you want to salvage the existing plane, then I can not offer you more advise or techniques than have been offered. You will now have to solve your own problems and you will become the teacher. Let me know what you do to get her back in the air. Any day that you don?t learn something from others is a lost day indeed.
The teacher becomes the student.
