Yeah I'm 100% with ya on seeing a follow up video for the build on this coroplast funbat... I have a box of it here in my house and this would be a great little project. I'm fairly new to scratchbuilds so a build video would be AWESOME! I also like the version I saw in another video where they do the combat dog fight with the streamers... come on guys... lets see a build video. :)

Great job with a real fun project, man that plane held up well after getting tagged with those paintballs.
Guys hope you filmed the build of that plane, it looked real easy to fly and a great starter plane for a build so like constantmotion said, lets see the build...

Yeah, finally a paintball episode! I think it was a good challenge but go figure, when Josh Scott finally wins there's no prize.

And thanks for not shooting the Corsair. I was dreading it as soon as I saw it on the table. That airframe is just too near and dear to too many hearts.

I'm sure you guys could mount a couple of those paintball guns under the wings of a plane. You got a cinderblock to fly :)

Would really like to see some tips using corrugated plastic. And where does one get it?

I get it from my wife, she uses it at work to separate automotive glass that she delivers, try asking around at the local novus and other glass repair shops

After seeing the foam planes, I thought of making one form coroplast, now will definitely have to try it.
Fellowes sells Tuff-Boards which are 36" x 48" and you can get them at Amazon.
