Title: Lost Foam
Post by: Stephen on July 24, 2020, 12:36:09 PM

Soon I will be begin building a Legacy kit that's been in my closet for a few years. Where can I purchase a lost foam setup for the wing?

 Hey Bob,
Thanks for responding to my email! I will give you a call next week regarding the lost foam for the Legacy.

Motorman its Brodak kit and it does have jig to use but the wing doesn't come out like I wish. Also the lost foam is much quicker to build and straight as an arrow. I've always have problems getting a wing completely straight and I've been building for a long time. But thanks for the information !

My Latency (two time Advanced winner at Brodaks) was basically a Legacy with a Hunt lost foam wing. You have to make the ribs using the templates that come with the jig, little time consuming but this was the straightest strongest wing I have ever built.
