Haha, yes this is a scratch build. I cut out several layers of blue wall insulation foam from Lowe's and laminated them together with some 3M spray adhesive. After that dried I used a belt sander to sand the edges and make it round.

Just started to design a plane.... http://subsonichobby.blogspot.com/2012/12/diy-subsonicdrone-v1.html ... Any advice? And how did you determine the size of the wingtips on your plane?

The plane looks good. I would be sure that the plane is no to short in length because then it will be very pitchy and hard to get a good cg. Other than that, be sure to bevel the edge of the KFm2 airfoil. And for the wingtip, I guess, whatever looks right.
