We build our planes out of Dow Blue Fan Fold. We also built SKYEYE out of this material. The Dow Blue Fan Fold is surprisingly durable. This gives us a chance to have some crashes and learn from them and fly another day with our experimental RC aircraft. Here we talk about Fan Fold and show some of the crashes that the plane has endured to this point.
