Stresskin panels with urethane foam cores are excellent vapor barriers and moisture will not penetrate them, provided that the joints are properly sealed, so vent spaces are not needed for moisture control.
Tunnels are provided in the foam cores to route the servo cords and extensions through the wing to the center "Y" cords.
Vacuum bagging also allows foam, balsa and honeycomb cores to be bonded in place with minimal amounts of adhesive, once again saving time and costly materials while adding quality and integrity to the finished product.

These foam boards feature resilient polystyrene cores that ensure a clean precise cut, whether you use a mat cutter or utility knife.

The polyurethane foam core is top quality UK made to retain its resilience over time, and the almost unbreakable polypropylene straps are sewn to the fastening strip across the back to form a continuous loop that does not load the seams of the cover and so will never distort the fabric or tear out.
There are many types of panels already on the market with rigid, foam plastic, insulation foam cores that are surfaced with various sheathing veneers such as plywood, gypsum and/or cement boards, steel, aluminum and others.
The foam is made from Absorbolite™ PVC foam and are designed with continuous foam cores providing less seams in the mat.

First most Aerobatic planes use foam cores for their wings which works fine as they just have wingtubes and boxes for their servos in them and some LG hardwood along with a light wing loading.

Chopper strand or mat layups with balsa wood or foam cores just don't have the tensile or flexual strength of woven fiberglass lamination.

Construction is hand-made with bias-woven fiberglass, modern foam cores and high-density foam stringers and bulkheads encapsulated in fiberglass.
The pressures and temperatures associated with use of these foams were recorded using sensors placed along the surface of the cores being tested.
This is due to the fact that to achieve structural strength, these composites often contain multiple layers of polyurethane foam or wood cores with glass reinforced laminates which traditional NDE techniques are unable to reliably penetrate.
